sweet .. here's a little desert trick..
when youhave water use a half gallon down to a QT sized carrier, f youhave it in a old burlap carry jug, or a army issue 2qt sling or a camel back..
soak the outside of the container with water, the wind will cool off the water contents (calvary used to do this..... so it's a pretty old trick)
makes drinkng water in the desert more manageable..

good luck! and take tons of pictures! i f-in miss the desert
