[pct-l] Ticks vs. Hikers

[Montedodge@aol.com (Montedodge@aol.com)]

 Thanks for the numbers on sign in sheet from Border William!   If you don't 
want to shave your legs, you can just let 400 hikers start before you and let 
them carry the the ticks out of your way. With the rain down south this 
season, ticks may be out in record numbers. Many hikers worry about snakes 
down south ( I saw 8 between Campo and Cabazon) It is though that ticks are 
the plague of the desert, much as mosquitoes are farther North.A small set of 
tweezers are very handy. Signed, Ticked Off!!
