Welcome to the Southwest. Nothing is more miserable than running out of
water. I immediately start going into coffee withdrawals. In one of Heinz
Stucke's
stories https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinz_St%C3%BCcke  he talks of
running out somewhere in Ethiopia I think and having to go 2 or 3 days in
its hot desert clime, pushing his bike through sand much of the way. That's
body bag stuff.
Here's Ian Hibbel in the Sahara, note blue containers.
