I have a bit of a phobia of snakes, and the woods around here are full of them. How do you bros deal with walking over rocky areas or through brush that is a very snake-friendly environment? Freaks me out so I avoid going off trail too much. Should I just man up and deal with it? Get decent boots instead of shoes, or do you have some anti-snake methods you use?
