[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I share your fears but I still hike out west. I’m a huge red rocks fan. I never go alone. I have run into every single thing I’m afraid of and it was fine - bears, rattlesnakes, bobcats (twice) . . . But you know what almost killed me and my family? [b]Dehydration[/b]. It was no joke - we almost died because we got lost and ran out of water. [/quote] This is your biggest worry. I'm amazed at the number of people who underestimate the heat and sun. They get worked up over the animals - which they will likely never see and, if they do, won't bother them - but forget that heat and dehydration is the biggest killer. Go in the Spring. YOu'll be fine. [/quote]
