Great, we were just there! We wanted to stay in Curry Village, but it was sold out in minutes. Thankfully we didn't stay there, but we did hike all around. Surely we would've gotten sick by now if we were exposed. We were there in August. I feel really lucky that we weren't able to get a cabin there.

Such a huge population of deer mice there and I really wasn't worried about ticks while I was there! What was I thinking?!?! I was more worried about my kids falling and hitting their heads on a rock! Also saw tons of deer!
