flboy, Howdy;
Your rout will be taking you across the Great Basin? High Desert country.
Might think about one of those Hydration backpacks that hold several
liters of water. Altitude and dry air will suck the liquids right out of ya.
Waterholes are far and few between out there. Moab is well, dry except
for the Green River that flows N to S. Her's a few pix of some that forgot
to hydrate;
