Another
thing to look for carefully is poison oak
I was at a ride one time when someone went behind a bush and squatted down
over stinging nettle. She was pretty miserable the rest of the weekend. At
another ride, my friend found a bush and a few seconds later she came flying out
of there trying to pull up her pants as she ran. A snake was in the same bushes
and it started slithering towards her when she was in a difficult position to
flee quickly.
