Brood X is a swarm of cicadas that emerge every 17 years. 2021 is the next year that they will emerge. I'm not sure if anyone remember's the swarm in 2004 but they were loud and everywhere. They emerge in early summer on the East coast so basically right when everyone is going to be on the trail.

Is anyone planning a hike next season around cicadas or giving them any thought at all? What do we think?
