The last few days of the last NTC rotation we were looking at 115F with higher temps the farther north you went. With the last rotational unit coming from JBLM they were pulling 3-4 guys out of the Box a day the entire 14 training days for heat related injuries.
Spent the last night in the Box on the southern ridge overlooking Death Valley - A more beautiful sunset I have not seen anywhere else.
