OhMAN? We got cholla here that is higher than your house! We have so much of it, it's not even "protected!"
Yikes.
Ran across some at Fort Sill.
Went belly down on it during training.
Then instantly jumped back up cursing my brains out with this oval-ish abomination with near two inch thorns sticking to me.
Thankfully, it was a small specimen of the plant, so I wasn't landing on somethng as big as I was.
If it had been bigger than two bagels, I would have been able to avoid it..
