[QUOTE="Deepseeker, post: 493579, member: 13321"] I always wear gaitors. I don't know where you are located or where you're going, but don't get caught in a false sense of security with snakes in the cooler months. Generally they aren't active in winter as Aussie snakes Brumate (Slow down and use stored fat to survive). Aussie snakes don't hibernate like they do on other continents. But around warmer areas and coastlines they still come out on sunnier days during winter to find somewhere to bask in the sun if they can, and if you step on one it will bite you just the same as in summer, with the same toxicity in its venom. Ditto if you move a log, rock, sheet of tin or whatever out of the way to uncover one. [/QUOTE]
