Uh, ever hear of the desert southwest?
The northwest corner of New Mexico. Low precipitation, about 6" a year, most of it in the summer. And high altitudes moderate the summer temperatures.
The problem is that when it does rain, the dirt roads (of which most roads are) are all but impassable. We are talking mud of the sort that make even walking almost impossible. Of course a couple of days later... everything is fine.
Looking forward to my next visit! Anasazi ruins...
