Living in Arizona is quite a unique experience because of the vastness that the state offers. From the Sonoran Desert in the south to the high country in the north all the way up towards the Four Corners east and the Grand Canyon in the west. Known as the Grand Canyon state, Arizona is diverse in many ways. The state tree is the Palo Verde, the state cactus is the Saguaro, the state bird is the Cactus wren.

    Don't hike Camelback Mountain with flip flops, don't go on a triple digit temperature day, and never take your pet with you on a hiking trail on a hot day.

    Wish there were more people like you who respect nature and property. Not just in AZ, but all over the U.S. Especially here in NY.

    Another thing regarding flash floods, etc. Don't camp in dry washes. It may look soft and inviting but you never know when that dry wash could become an intense flood.

    Always carry water in your car no matter what!!!! Water always helps it may not be cold but it really helps to one that really needs it

    Don't touch anything metal without gloves in the summer.

    He needed to emphasize even more that driving your vehicle through a flooded wash is stupid. It doesn’t matter how much water you see or if it’s moving; the water is muddy and you don’t know if the road still exists, if the current underneath is too strong or if debris may lurk. And if you think your off-road badass SUV or truck is immune, I have pulled many of those vehicles out of washes and they are usually destroyed and unusable or require expensive repair. We had a family lose multiple children a few years ago crossing a flash flood crossing. He had a respectable vehicle. They’re dead.

    I have learned this here in eastern Oregon but I'm sure it's even more of a thing in Arizona. If you are out in the wild or even out in the country around an old house or rest stop if you lift something up like a rock or board or anything on the ground lift it up away from you and stand back. There could be a rattlesnake or scorpion underneith.

    I want to add something about what I find very difficult living in Arizona. Yes, it gets extremely hot here, but what's so hard for me, is it can be 110 degrees during the day BUT nights "cool down" to only 95 degrees and I'm talking about midnight, to 2:00 and 3:00 a.m. During the summer, it's too hot to be outdoors sitting on your patio, even the pool water is too warm. It's still in the 100's in September. BUT! The winters here is nothing but gorgeous weather. Which is why those from the north escape to come here. You cannot beat the winters.

    Without drinking enough water before a hike, your joints can suffer. Dehydration leads to shrinking of synovial fluid, which is the lubricant for your knees and other joints. I've experienced knee pain that stopped a hike. It was because I was not well hydrated. The pain can be bad enough to strand you. And it causes wear and tear that isn't good for your joints.
  • I live in neighboring New Mexico and pretty much the same rules for Arizona apply to us too!
  • Good advice, number one don't trash the DESERT, keep America Beautiful Country ✌👍👍
  • @docraineyIII
    You were blessed with a pleasant voice and delivery. Wonderful work, thank you and have a better 2021.

    Walk your dog at nite after the sun goes down in hot summer months. Their paws will burn on that asphalt like its cool. Feel the pavement with your hand before you take the K9's out for a walk. Please.
  • @mindibear
    Don’t own a car with leather seats especially if you wear shorts.
  • @CaliforniaGuy88
    The video should be relabelled how to be a responsible adult.
  • You forgot to mention that if you do get swept away in a posted do not enter flood aera. You will be billed for your rescue.
  • I'm from Michigan and I have a great deal of respect for water too bad some of the farmers out here don't. Planting pistachio trees in the desert and the thousands of gallons to water them it's such a waste. It's no wonder the aquifers are being drained and the Colorado River right along with them. It'd be nice if you'd stop those farmers trying to grow things in a desert where it doesn't belong.
