It will probably be hot. Temps will be in the 90's unless you get lucky with a late spring pacific storm. Bring a lot of water, wear long sleeve shirts, and wear a large brim hat.

Does anyone on this forum know where the champion saquaro is on the dutchman trail? I know it's past Bluff Springs. Any GPS coords?

wow. its good to see HAZ back!

It looks like a hanger and it pushes together so you can get it inside the camelbak bladder. It then expands to dry out the bladder.
