I've not been in a position to do a truly proper thorough check but I've seen no signs of ticks and really no bites of any sort. Perhaps I have always just been lucky but ticks are rampant in many part of the States too that I hike and I've only ever had a couple. <BR/><BR/>I never noticed any biting flies or mosquitos which was a lovely change from hiking here. Had I spent a similar period of time hiking in say the Upper Peninsula or New England to say nothing of the forests down south I am sure I'd have been fodder for many more bugs than I was during the TGO.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16916977482838143188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-751014576163499345.post-15242258084273842222008-05-12T07:08:00.000-04:002008-05-12T07:08:00.000-04:00Hopefully the ticks aren't bothering you.
