The number one piece of equipment you could take with you into the desert here would be a signal mirror. And that’s useless if you do not know how to use it.
The Arizona desert is currently the number one desert to die within in the United States. The Sonora desert has claimed the lives of over 400 people since 1999.
It’s not a hospitable place to vacation or try to cross illegally. Unless one has had advanced desert survival training one should not be running around in the Sonora desert, it can and will kill a person very quickly otherwise.

This would be a tough one for about 3 days or so...
Along with a mirror, I always carry plastic in a desert environment. Lightweight multiple use item, solar still, shade, collection material for water out of very shallow pools and rain (if your are lucky)
Sorry RL...I think I'm dead...

Ain't no one getting out of this world alive. All you can do is try to have some choice in the way you go. Prepare yourself (and your affairs), and when your number is up, die on your feet fighting rather than on your knees. And make the SOBs pay dearly."
