Nymph ticks everywhere

We hiked for an hour and when we returned to the car found all these little white bugs all over our bodies and all over our dog. We called the ranger and he said these were nymph ticks. I’m quite familiar with ticks and have never seen so many all over. I also woke up the next day with a circular tick rash despite showering. It’s not a safe trail... at least in September.
