More power to you Nick, I've never even experienced that kind of heat.
Night hike?
Even the night temperatures would be unpleasant.

It was 105 here and I was working outside all day. What difference does 15 degrees make?
A huge amount of difference. Dry 105F is about the upper limit for me. You feel the difference even going to 110, and that is after 18 years of N SLO county summers where 100-105 is common and unremarkable. 115 is just an unremitting furnace. I haven't gone any higher than 117 but didn't find it the most agreeable.
"It was 105 here and I was working outside all day. What difference does 15 degrees make?"
The difference is exponential.
That was sarcasm.
The hottest I have experienced was working landscaping for a week when it was about 110 every day. My body eventually got used to it and stopped bitching at me, didn't really notice it much. I always feel the hottest when transitioning from spring to summer.
I have experienced 120-130 getting into a closed car and it feels like the air temperature is burning my skin.
Well at least my neighborhood wasn't quite the hottest today:
