I just received my GPS and a couple days ago I went out with it.
I marked 6 trees in the memory for later collecting. Some of 'em were little, and some of them were a good three feet tall. One or Two of these six are deciduous. The rest are junipers and/or pines. I really don't remember off the top of my head. BUT, there are some downsides. It was in the high 80's and the humidity was crazy. I brought a water bottle and I was very thankful. Some things to say if you collect in a very hot and/or humid region. DO wear long socks with pants and boots. This helps ALOT with ticks, chiggers, and other unwanted vermin. The pants and socks ma not help with the heat but it will help in the long run, especially if you take an accidental fall on a steep slope. Also, DO take a backpack with plenty of water, and energy bars.(NOT chocolate for those of who are chocolate addicts) Maybe take along a 5 Hour energy drink or something. DO wear a breathable long-sleeve shirt. Preferably Underarmour or something like it. Try to avoid short sleeves.(When I was walking in the woods I must have gone through a bush INFESTED with ticks because I looked down and there were 7-12 of the little buggers on my arms.) If there are more than you can count on your body, this is a REALLY BAD thing. If there is a stream and/or area of running water I HIGHLY suggest you go submerge yourself in it as quickly as possible.(This same incident happened to a gentleman in my area. He was near a stream but decided to go straight to his car and drive home. He later found out that he received Lyme disease form a tick. DO wear a hat or bandanna to keep the sweat out of your eyes. DO NOT wear ANYTHING cotton unless you have to. The cotton will soak up ALL the your perspiration. DO NOT over pack. The last thing you want is to be carrying stuff will not use. But, DO carry a knife to help if your in need of it. I rely on a Fixed Benchmade knife. It was a great value and can be used to clear leaves and such from around the base of the tree. DO always carry a first aid kit. Whether it be a little one or a survival one. This can help for cuts you may receive. DO let someone know where you are going and at what time you should be back. The last thing you want is whacking your head on a rock and going into unconsciousness and not wake up with nobody to come rescue you.
This was all some advice that I had to offer. You can find Benchmade knives at [url]https://www.benchmade.com[/url] I use military grade knives. They are on the website called BLACKclass. I find these to work the best in the outdoors.
I hope you find this information useful.
