>>1381052I was only in utah for a trip but desert camping is very different from eastern woodlands
>no water sources, have to carry 1+ gallon/day>air is so dry that it sucks moisture from you, so you go through more water than usual>no shade in the open daytime sun, make sure to account for this when planning your routeNight time is surreal. The stars are the clearest you'll ever see them (since low moisture means no atmospheric haze). But if you're used to camping in eastern woodlands the most dramatic change is it's dead silent: no crickets, frogs, or bird sounds. Just the wind and the dust.
