That's what everybody keeps saying: Look in fields and open areas" , but whenever I find a snakes it's always in extreme local elevations.

I think the thing that really frustrates me is that I can't find a snake while I am looking for a snake........it's always when I least expect it or when I'm not prepared for it(If I had actually stepped on that Timber I would have had venom in me, out of cell phone range, and about 7 miles from the ranger station....how far from a hospital I have no clue).

But I KNOW they are here. Everyone I talk to says they have plenty of luck......funny how it disappears when we go herping together. One of my friends was even swimming in a lake, decided to lift up a rock, and found a 2-headed ring-neck snake!

I did find one snake on the road last year, but pathetically it was while backing out of my driveway.....I stopped. That's another (good)thing though..........I don't think I have seen one more than 5 DORs since I have been here.
