I’d hiked in Carolinas for years and seen one or two
Dragged someone hiking in Texas, north of Houston, a state park
Reassured him it would be fine, there’s trails
We walked for 30 or 40 minutes over leaf litter before we realized that there were thousand of snakes under the leaves
So creepy
Ran back, trying to avoid the leafy places
