I’m a pretty heat resistant individual but not excessively so, people are warning me against it….will I die? I’m planning to go to Broken Bow / Beaver’s Bend, Oklahoma. Maybe camp near a lake.

I'm an experienced hiker and recently hiked in a humid (>60%) scrubland at like 95 degrees. It was miserable and I will not be doing it again any time soon.
My fiancée was with me, she is less experienced and I was nervous that I might have to carry her to the car at some points. Every hill we had to go 30 feet and then rest for a minute until we reached the top. It wasn't even 2 miles and it felt like 10.
I would strongly recommend against it, but if you still go, take an absurd amount of water with you and don't leave cell phone range. Wear a long sleeve sun shirt and a huge hat.
