Two live snakes on the trail today. One a baby, which my wife and I both negotiated around. The other about 2 feet long. Fine with me, but a pedestrian coming by freaked out, and would not pass the snake until it moved off the trail. It was sunning itself.
I have no problem with snakes, but the wife ........... well, don't even mention them to her!!
I believe I saw a small rattler a couple of days ago. Some folks were gathered around, so I rode on. I later saw these folks, and they hadn't a clue, and were a bit shocked when I mentioned it might be a rattler. I have seen a verified rattler in the exact same spot a few years back.
