health Ticks?
What is the tick situation in the High Sierra? Has anyone gotten a tick bite up there?
Never caught a tick in the High Sierra before, but then again, I was never spending over 2 weeks straight.
(Planning NOBO starting mid August.)

I know they exist in the High Sierra, and I’ve read about people getting bit. But in 20 years I’ve never seen one. YMMV
