Understand

The climate is typically dry, hot desert in the southern lowlands, and coniferous forest in the upcountry north and east. Summertime temperatures are routinely above 110 during the day in the desert, but much cooler in the higher elevations. Mild winters in the low country, but the upcountry gets cold and frequently receives snow.

When in the desert be sure to carry plenty of water. Dehydration happens surprisingly quickly, especially if you aren't accustomed to the heat.
