[QUOTE="garyahouse, post: 1149539, member: 20946"] +1 on that CamelBak idea. When the temps get above 110, there's nothing like a good slug of ice water. I stopped about every 1.5 - 2 hours to fill it, and take a break. I found that not only did it keep me hydrated, the ice cold water actually cools ya off a good deal just because it's seriously cold. I averaged drinking about a half gallon per hour, give or take a little. Can't thank Zilla enough for insisting I borrow his Camelback for my jaunt across the desert. Actually across several deserts. I had no idea what it was like to ride through that kind of heat... and I live in Florida. Here, Baker airwings are your friend. In the desert, they are not. You absolutely do not want any extra air blowing on ya. It's just like Z said... it feels like a hair dryer blowing on ya, the air is so hot. Gary [/QUOTE]
