[QUOTE="Cranky Emu, post: 626977, member: 10949"] I wouldn't be to concerned about snakes unless you are in long grass/vegetation or rocky areas. Then a set of gaiters may help. Usually they move on before you have even seen them, make a bit of noise - bang the pick on the ground now and then should ward off most of them. Speaking of gaiters, does any company make kevlar gaiters. I not convinced these canvas variants would be enough to stop the bite force of a decent brown or tiger, or Taipan for the Northern prospectors. [/QUOTE]
