TUCSON, Ariz. — Tucson is often hailed as a hiker’s paradise, but with June’s rising temperatures, it can easily turn into a hiker’s nightmare. Heat-related illnesses and sudden monsoon storms pose significant risks.
SARA, a volunteer-based organization, collaborates with the Pima County Sheriff’s Department to provide search and rescue services to hikers in distress. For hikers willing to brave the heat, DiMiceli suggests bringing more water than you think you need and bringing along electrolyte-added beverages and salty snacks. She also says to tell a loved one that you will be hiking, where you will be and how long you expect to hike.
