>>2753969the desert's a beautiful place but in a harsh way.
love the desert sunsets and evenings, there is nothing quite like it. But i really hate going /out/ in the middle of the day with no shade
Back in appalachia I could hike without sunscreen because of all the trees and shade, and if it was a real hot day you just find a nice cool spot next to the brook trout streams to relax. I miss that sometimes
