fall is great for hiking because the trees look pretty, it's not as hot, and the poison oak turns red so it's even easier to avoid lol
i reeaally wanna organize a trip to pinnacles national park in the fall. i love the caves and the rock formations that make it look like you're on an alien planet. only problem: soo much poison oak
while i've made a lot of progress on my poison oak phobia, i've still never actually gotten it, so i think that makes it scarier in my mind. don't itchy
