Anyone go to Mision Santa María and look out that way?... Not much else to do except being close to the highway (services, cave art).

that fountain has water ! it had been a long time since I had seen agua there
a month is really a long time - one can only hope that it is his choice to go into the hinterland - a Mexican once told me that you only die in the
desert if you want to since there are plenty of plants containing liquid and vital vitamins.
Guaranteed that I would NOT want to test that theory.
