Camping and hiking during the summer is amazing, clear skies, the sunshine on our faces and the heat makes a great excuse to take a dip, but in very hot weather time outdoors can quickly lead to heat exhaustion and at best, can make many of us feel hot, sticky and cranky. Staying hydrated then, is the key to enjoying hot weather outdoors.
