>>2236010>they brought picrel 2L of water into a long desert hike for 2 people, a baby, and a dogJesus.
I did a similar trip with my wife on a similar day. We're from a wet state, visited a dry one. Still, being not retarded, we brought 2 GALLONS and left after 90min. Never got more than 1-2mi from the car. As soon as about 50min we both realized the 2gal would not last too long and headed back. We still got significant dehydration from that ordeal, but didn't die because we know our limits and prepared properly.
I can't how so many people underestimate water and just bumble into the woods thinking it's a walk in a local city park. I know friends like this. Nearly had a TPK of like 8 people from mass stupidity over many hours due to dehydration (literally: walk up a dry mountain rockslide with ~1L water per person). I bet the park rangers still joke about their story.
We would never bring a baby or dog into such a hike, all else aside, poor dog (baby was screwed regardless).
