Caution on wasps. was out to sades on 4/4/05 spring hatch is on. wasps concentrated on all south facing rock and cracks. Still pretty slow. Not sure if wasp spray is ok to use might want to check with park to get approval. I seen a swarm of about 20-40 huddled in a crack and tried to smash them with the park times magazine. I didn't stick around to see how many fell. wasnt many left when i returned. fly swater would help reduce numbers.

Oh!

I was all set for a racially hot topic :wink:

What other kind of critters do people have trouble with? Spiders around here, anywhere near water anyway, big as your hand sometimes.
