Ah... Spring on Our Trails!

What could be better than hiking/riding in the Sierra foothills during warm spring weather. The weather is warm, but not roasting yet. The trails are free of snow, but not dusty. Conditions are optimal, except... except for the HATEFUL leaves that are sprouting everywhere.

I have had a lot of luck with Tecnu over the years. I have also used their new Xtreme product, which is xtremely xfective after infxtion (sorry, I just detest that lame-o "X" abbreviation). The trick is to use these treatments ASAP after contact. And ignore those poison oak myths that Uncle Bob recommends.
