Image not posting hauling Ass to pics

I have just become the new mod of this sub. Looking for any feedback as to improvements. Please post! :)

What preps have you made to deal with excessive heat that we experience in the region?

For example: I keep twice as much water as I think I'll need. Blackout curtains, and aluminum foil for bugging in as well. A couple cold packs as well.

I'm interested in seeing if anyone who has traveled, camped, or hiked through hot areas (be they deserts or otherwise) has any tips for bug out plans as well.
