Thanks for watching! Who's ready for some sweaty sunshine-filled Summer hikes?! ☀️🙋‍♀️

Once your buff gets sweaty, take it off, wring it out, grab a corner and spin it for about 15 to 20 seconds. The air cools it off just like if you were to dip it in a creek.

Great advice, Amanda. I would also add that a wide-brim hat, while dorky-looking, can really help. Some even have a removable evaporation pad in the crown that you can remove and soak in cold water for additional cooling. Love my Tilley hat.

I love the first long sleeve shirt you showed. I just wish that it was in plus size. :-( unfortunately there is none in my size.

Creating your own shade with a hiking umbrella is also great! Subscribed!

Love this video. I almost get heat exhaustion every single time when I go hiking in summer , wether it's easy or moderate and shades or no shades. Hope I could get rid of it in my next hiking in late Aug.

Yes!!! Cannot WAIT for summer hikes 🤗

Any suggestions for folks hiking in the humid summers of the Eastern United States? I imagine the same tips hold true. However, it gets very sticky in the Mid-Atlantic states.

Love your channel! I just started seriously hiking and fishing this year. I bought a kayak and will also be taking my first camping trip in September. I’m loving my new adventures. Your channel has been very helpful and I’m making my lists and planning my gear! Thank you for all the incredible information!

Thx for not making this just a long commercial for products.

This might work in the low humidity of the desert, but what works in the high humidity of the Southeast?

Great advice! I live in Texas and it’s starting to heat up so I’ve gotta be prepared haha

I live in the desert and do not ever recommend wearing shorts on a hike. Everything has burrs, every insect or reptile is trying to bite you.

Going to Zion this weekend. Thanks for the information.

You ARE The Desert Queen! Thank you. I live in So. Cal. We have lots of deserts!

I really like the wet the bandeau tip. Atlanta is starting to heat up quite a bit.

Awesome video!! I was so happy when I realized that I could hike in long sleeve shirts in summer to cut down on the sun burns (ginger problems)

Thanks for the options. I love hiking and was just diagnosed with skin cancer. So I need to get some of these shirts to cover my skin.

Love that idea with the buff!

While light clothing does reflect light it is not as effective as dark clothing for UV protection. In general strongly dyed dark clothes are better. The reason light clothing can have UPF 50+ is by having a dense weave such that light doesn't pass through (easy to check). Thanks for the vid.

no you’re so right about long sleeves (depending on material) i wore long sleeve shirts and pants hiking in morocco where it was blazing hot but i was kept very cool. tip i learned there: a gentleman in marrakech who sold me an overpriced silk scarf told me to wear it around my neck and head during my hike and it would keep me cool. i was sceptical but tried it. in addition to looking stylish (heyoo), he wasn’t kidding, it really helped.

I used to wear light colored clothes a lot in summer hikes thinking they’re gonna reflect off the sun but after doing some research i found out light colored clothing are actually less protective against UV than darker colored clothes. Yes dark color makes you feel warmer, but they also protect you from getting burned. For people who hike in desert conditions, it might be a good idea to invest in some SPF protection long sleeve shirts/pants. They don’t have the best ventilation but they protect you.

Wow !!!! What beautiful scenery !

Nunn tables are an essential part of my hiking gear as well. 👍🏻

We are moving to Texas in the fall, so these will come in handy!! Thanks so much for sharing!

What material is that shirt? I'm looking for bandanas / scarfs / gaitors of the same material

I love that I found your channel! So much helpful information!

Good info. Going out this weekend to the high desert, and was looking for ways to stay cool.

+1 for the wet cloth

Thanks for the tips!

Hello Amanda, great advice and recommendations for staying cool. Take Care and Keep Exploring The Outdoors.

I rock columbia PFG shirts.

I like the Buff headband

yessss i love the nuun tabs!!

Good sensible information. Thank you. I presume your video was taken somewhere in the USA. It looks fantastic. It must be visited sometime in the future.

Great tips!👍🏿🏃🏿

Thanks for the fun, informative video.

0:55 классно, когда походницы в шортиках! одно загляденье

I rock hemp shorts, a linen shirt and a straw hat. I might look like someone's poor cousin at a yacht party but what the hell. Arab head scarf works too. Although hiking in scorching heat is not a great idea in the first place. Proper hydration is key.

I survived working in extreme heat by using the following free hack; 1. Freeze bottles of water. 2. Tie a pair of socks together at the toes. 3. Place two frozen bottles of water inside the socks. 4. Put the sock cooler around your neck. 5. Tie the loose ends together and tuck inside your shirt. 6. Will keep you cool for about two hours in extreme heat. 7. When the ice melts you have ice water at your disposal.

excellence...good very good

great video mate!

Great advice. I would love for you to make a "What I wear backpacking" video. I always struggle with finding cute clothes for backpacking. I feel like so many hiking clothes out there look like clothes that my mom would wear. The hiking clothes that you wear are so cute. I typically hike in wooded areas and have to wear long pants due to ticks and poison ivy.

what a coincidence, I just dropped a video about possible ways to keep your tent cool. But I like to know how to stay cool when hiking too. Cause I can't take an AC with me. Thanks for sharing.

Great topic!!

So helpful! Thank you

Great advice! I'm all about a cool, wet buff too 😉

Hi Amanda! Great video! What microphone are you using in this video? I’ll very much appreciate it if you can share an amazon link to it. Thank you!

What brand shirt was that?

How far can kids hike, and how much can they carry?

Hey A, for the Patagonia hoodie, what size do you wear? Does it fit true? My GF is small usually. Did you go one size up? Thanks!!!

Cool channel!

I wear a skull cap and keep it wet, it helps to cool me.

Amanda, any problems with ticks while wearing shorts?

hi

I just hate having to pee … being a woman sucks when your forced to squat in a bush risk being seen or whatever

🎥🎥🎥🎥🎥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️🍻

I also want to make yt chenal for trekking i am interesting about it

Nuun has way too much Magnesium and tastes terrible. Magnesium is a diuretic, causing dehydration, among other issues in the desert. SaltStick is much more effective. SaltStick is pure electrolyte (thus weighing less for the same impact), properly balanced and (therefore) tastes good.

How silly? I'm sure most wouldn't agree with wearing that stuff in the heat.
