I went to look for Calif. Black head snakes with my son on Sunday and we saw seven CHL's two striped racers and a snake what looked like a Calif. Glossy Snake, the big thing was one of the larger CHL's looked like it was part porkupine (not sure how it's spelled) but it was light tan long spines and horns all over and his tail looked like a club with spikes, could this be something other than a CHL???

Thanks
