I'm sure this has been covered, probably many times, but I can't find it....So, can you answer this? I guess the first thing you might want to do is ditch the aluminum poles, and whatever other metal you might have. Which means you probably don't want to go too far away, since you're going to want that stuff back when it's over. Then, what if you're in tall trees, but you see a more open spot not too far away -- are you better off in the tall trees or in the open (where YOU are the tallest thing around)?
About the only thing I ever learned about lightning safety was to get out of the pool! But, of course, if you're out hiking the trail, and it's lightning, odds are you are going to already be soaking wet...
So, can y'all advise?
Thanks!
