Thanks, great advice. I am from the midwest and used to very humid and hot summers. I can take the heat just fine, its the low humidity that I am a little concerned about. I will be in Utahs Red Rock area for the 10 days before my GC inner gorge hike. Is this time enough to aclimate to the climate?

I had originally planned hiking the South Kaibab to BAC day 1, then to clear creek day 2 and spend a couple of days in the clear creek area. Back to BAC for our last night and back up. I have however been reading that clear creek trail (corridor trail?) during July is practically impossible. True? If so, I might conced to just doing a cross canyon hike. S to N and back.

Is clear creek running year round?
