Jeremys Run hike full of ticks!








 

Six hikers took Jeremys Run hike with 15 stream crossings, 18.6 miles and 3200 feet elevation gain. We saw some wild birds and the peak of mountain laurels.
The uphills at the 2nd half of the hike were draining and full of ticks, and some of us were disappointed that the park store still couldn’t sell their favorite blackberry ice cream. Nevertheless, we had cold drinks after the hike, and the went to our favorite winery to chill out. Enjoy the last few cool days before the hot summer!
There were many ticks found on hikers’ bodies, so I decided to check my body for ticks and shower, and rolling the 1.4 miles to my Monday run.
