I didn't read everyones reply to your post Flap, but there is some good advice you get caught away from shelter in a storm like that. I used to hike quite a bit, and many times that would be above tree lines in Utah or Colorado. There are signs where trails reach a height where vegitation stops at or above tree lines and the first thing generally mentioned is what to do during lightning. Thier advice always was getting down on your haunches, hugging your knees to your chest and keep only the rubber soles on your footwear in contact with the ground. And if that doesn't work your real close to your butt where you could easily kiss your you know what goodbye.
