[QUOTE="Anniegee, post: 523466, member: 17049"] My best tip... keep your eyes open and tread heavily.. most snakes will pick up the vibration in heavy footsteps and be on their way long before you see them. My darling (adult) kids bought me a PLB (Personal Locator Beacon) for Xmas a couple of years ago after I broke my ankle while camping on my own in an isolated area (000 and 112 did not work!), 10 year battery life. I am now under strict orders to wear it at all times when I'm out in the bush on my own, and I do (only take it off when I'm safely in bed). I also have a well stocked First Aid Kit which was a godsend when I broke my ankle. So being realistic there is more likelihood of having an accident than getting bitten by a snake.
