Very hard. Without water, a person will not last long. It takes a specialized form of life to survive in the little/no water dessert. People can die in a desert very quickly without enough water to live.

∙ 9y agoWith sufficient water, food and shelter, a person can survive indefinitely in a desert. Without water, maybe two or three days depending upon the temperature and physical condition of the person. However, if it is quite hot and the person is physically active, that person could only survive a few hours without water.
The majority of people who live in the deserts around the world live in cities and towns and have access to everything they need to live and survive comfortably. I have spent nearly 40 years living in 'the desert' and have indoor Plumbing. running water, electricity and am about a half mile from a Wal Mart SuperCenter where I can purchase food and other necessities.
