[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love climbing in the Alps, but would be OK overnighting at the treeline there, in a tent. The hiker's cabins are spartan and communal and I would never go there, so one tent night is all I can do before I need real toilets and a shower. Since I don't want to buy tents and things just for rare nights outside, I rent a nice chalet.[/quote] Me again. I don't quite know how to camp in the US. Isn't the entire country overrun with ticks? I'm used to Europe, which has fewer ticks, especially at high altitude in the Alps.[/quote] Most of the eastern US has lots of ticks. You check nightly. You check ALL OVER. You take antibiotics if you get bitten for long enough, or if you don’t feel well after possible Lyme exposure. For me and many others, it’s worth the risk. [/quote]
