Lewis already looks guilty, and he hasn't even "shared" his prize with Dad yet :-) I'm thinking chaps made of poodle fur might do well for desert hikers!

They are excellent for removing the pesky cholla from the flesh. The spines go between the comb's teeth and then you can pull the pup off.

At least he was able to get the cacti spines out and didn't have to abandon his jeans in the desert. Those things really hurt -- we've been stuck a time or two. And yes, the cholla do seem to jump! Lewis wears the cholla quite well, I think.

And of course the cholla DO wait quietly to jump on their next innocent victim. Lewis looks quite rakish (and a bit bewildered) in his crown of thorns. I'm glad he wasn't hurt. And I'm pretty sure the jean drop must have been entertaining too. Dave took the brunt of that one! Now just don't go flirting with an agave--their dagger-like points ache like crazy if you get "bitten" by one of those!
