Another concern is the weather. The Saturday forecast calls for it to get
up to 118 Degrees Fahrenheit here in Laughlin, Nevada. The suspected
strewn-field is only a couple hours drive south from here so it will
probably be hot. I have a racecar driver's cooling vest that has been
adapted to field use that circulates iced water through tubes. The battery
last eight hours but the ice cartridges only last about four hours so
hunting time is very limited in this kind of heat.
Be Careful! People, who are not acclimatized to the heat, have been found
dead out here by simply changing a flat tire.
