Plastic soda or water bottles make great inexpensive water bottles. A 2-liter bottle fits nicely into the side pocket of most backpacks.
Cooking over a fire
If you like to cook over an open fire, there is nothing like a small rubber hose to encourage reluctant wood, or coax a small ember to life. Start with a 3" piece of 3/8" aluminum or copper tubing. Slip an 18" piece of rubber tubing over the metal and you are ready for action. No more bending over with your face next to the fire trying to blow at just the right spot. One caution! Don't breathe in through the hose.

This will be a wonderful time to explore Organ Pipe National Monument, the only place on earth where the Organ pipe cactus grows! Located 100 miles west of Tucson, on the Mexican border, the 330,000 acres of Sonoran Desert are truly spectacular. Hikes for the beginner, as well as the more adventurous, will be planned. Daytime temps should be about 80, with the nights dropping to the 40's.
