102?? Pppffff. You're getting spoiled. It was 104 today with 80% humidity.

Don’t I know it!! I was just in KS last summer helping with the cows on my Brother in laws farm. It’s 96 with 70+ humidity. I’m bush hogging several acres in an open top tractor. In about 1/2 an hr I’m completely soaked like I had jumped into a pool I’ll take 115 with 7% any day! Plus the desert doesn’t have Ticks and chiggers, poison ivy, poison oak and the hits go on
GA is MFing HOT! I lived at Ft Benning GA for 3yrs with my 79 Ford F-150, 3-on the Tree, crank windows and NO AC it would be 98 with 94% humidity. I would sweat in the MFing shower because the Army controlled the AC in the barracks…
I look back to those days and my Soft Raptor/Latte Life now and I’m embarrassed at the p>#>sy I’ve become

Can you describe where exactly that trail is down to the river ???

If you are ever headed this way give me a shout. I’ll meet you on the AZ side and we can run some of trails between the Dam and Laughlin that go to the River. There is a bunch of incredible trails along the River on Both sides.
below are pictures of another 4x4 trail that leads to this epic stroll along the River.
