Don't squat with your spurs on?

I think the most important thing is to keep hydrated

drink all the time - I never go anywhere without a bottle of water

if you're outside and you start to feel thirsty, you're already dehydrated and behind the 8-ball.

also, we're at a lower latitude so the sun is a bit stronger here and people tend to burn quicker

wear a good hat

remember that most of the plant life here has spines with various wonderful ways of keeping itself embedded in you

don't wear flip flops into the desert
