Poison Oak on Ruckle Creek trail
Worst I've seen. If you are going up there, make sure to pack some techno.

Yeah, I think it's Technu, the stuff one must all bathe in after encountering the PO .

Re: Poison Oak on Ruckle Creek trail
Thanks for the laugh, Adam!
The PO on the Ruckel Creek Trail (especially the lower sections) is no laughing matter, though. Wicked, wicked stuff.
For what it's worth, the product is actually spelled Tecnu, which is the company's shorthand for "Technically New". Many OH regulars may already know this, but it is interesting to note Tecnu's original purpose: removing radioactive fallout dust from skin. Given the choice, I would take the radioactive fallout dust over PO.

Re: Poison Oak on Ruckle Creek trail
Someone (Consumer Reports?) did a study and found that Tecnu was SLIGHTLY better than ordinary soap at removing urushiol from your skin, but that soap did a decent job. It's up to you to decide whether that slight improvement is worth the expense.
