Mesa is terrible solo

Mesa is just crazy to try to do solo. Tornadoes and scorpions can spawn right on top of you and can one shot you. tumbleweeds will launch you across the map. And then there's the sun, dynamite, cacti... this level feels way worse than the tundra. I got to the mesa a few times today and every time a tornado either spawns right where I'm standing or a scorpion comes behind and stings me without making a sound. I picked the wrong time to go for the solo achievement I guess
