    Midday glare is the part people underpack for, not the heat itself.

    Synthetics stop working once you are sweating through them all day.

  • A refillable water bottle

    Daily highs this warm need roughly double the water a temperate day does.

    The day swings about 11°C between its low and its high.

  • Comfortable walking shoes you can rinse
