Crossing Arizona deserts nearly as dangerous in winter as summer

By Arthur H. Rotstein
Tucson, Arizona (AP)

Arizona’s southern deserts are notorious for causing the deaths of illegal immigrants who try crossing miles of remote land in sizzling summer heat. Officials know that after a particularly hot spell, they’ll find the bodies of those killed by dehydration or heat stroke.

But the height of winter can be nearly as bad for migrants trying to make it into the U.S. from Mexico, at least in the misery the elements force them to endure during the trek. Temperatures can drop below freezing, snow and rainfall can soak migrants and shelter can be days away.
