Tell us the story behind your photo:
In this photo, it is the first day of the Silver AJ hike just after midday when the heat began to really affect us. I complained about the heat, and one of my group members threw water at me in order to “cool my body down”, and all my clothes got wet. It was a very funny moment and allowed my body temperature to also decrease by a bit, making the heat bearable.
