srs, don't take the Lyme risk lightly man.

yep coated the **** out of all my clothes and gear. Eating a lot of garlic helps with ticks too, in the 6 years I was in the Army I never had one tick bite.

Good idea, I usually give no fuks about people so I've gotta train myself to take more shots of hikers.

dude!! Do it! Best decision of my life. Snakes are easy to avoid, rattlers will leave you alone unless you literally step on them, copperheads arent around during hiking season.

Just lifting is pretty good training. Lots of squats and deads. I'm carrying one of the heaviest packs out here, 55lbs when I leave town and have no issues, cause strength is king. If Id had more time to prep I'd throw in one heavy(60lb) and one long distance(10+ miles) hike in each week in addition to strength training.

Nothing really odd yet. No bigfoots or anything. The only thing that comes to mind is a twisted tree. Young tree probably 12 inches diameter just twisted. Still live, green wood, twisted like someone grabbed it and turned it 260 degrees. Supposedly that's how Bigfoot marks his territory. I'd believe it, the wilds are so vast plenty of space for something intelligent to hide and live in. Can't think of any reason a tree could twist like that.

Have you ran into the trail angels Miss Janet and Santa's Little Helper?

When i was doing the highlands i decided to take some side trail that cut the big horseshoe you do in half (saves like 12-15 miles). Anyways ... that side trail got pretty thick and sketchy at a few points. Right when i was thinking that i made a bad decision i come around a corner and there was a huge longhorn cow staring at me. I've been around cows before ... but when you're not expecting one (especially a longhorn in that area)... i legit was like...



When i finally found my balls again i realized it was behind a fence. Best thing was... a few hundred yards down the path was another fence where they had separated all the baby calves into. I got my vengeance by chasing a bunch of them around for lols. My attempts at wrestling one to the ground failed but i did succeed at tripping a few. Good times!

Oh ya... one of those little horses bit me and tried humping one of the chicks i was hiking with lol.

I saw that same longhorn probably! He was not behind a fence and in the middle of the damn trail. I hustled past and hoped a horn wouldn't erupt from my chest.
