Howdy partners, it’s Maverick again, bringing you some tips on how to beat the heat now that summer is officially here at The Ranch at Salt River. Working on a ranch in Arizona can get pretty hot, but with a few tricks up your sleeve, you can stay cool and comfortable.
First off, hydration is key. Always have plenty of water on hand and take regular breaks to drink. Wearing light, breathable clothing and a wide-brimmed hat can also make a world of difference. Early mornings and late afternoons are the best times for outdoor activities, so we schedule our most strenuous tasks during these cooler parts of the day.
We’ve also got some great ways to cool off right here at the ranch. Apache Lake is perfect for a refreshing dip or a relaxing boat ride. Paddle boarding and jet skiing are not only fun but also fantastic ways to beat the heat. And after a long day of work, there’s nothing better than sitting in the shade, sipping a cold drink, and soaking in the peaceful surroundings.
Summer at The Ranch is full of adventure, and with these tips, you can enjoy every moment while staying cool. Come join us and experience the best of Arizona ranch life, even in the heat of summer. We look forward to welcoming you and sharing our love for this incredible land.
