Thanks a lot guys is was nice hearing from you again.

Todd H.- Yeah, that was it and I even hunted the Scissors area a lot to target them. The lack of moisture seemed to effect the kings and Long nosed quit a bit this year. The glossies were all over the road though. One night I seen 12 Glossies and one Gopher.

Reako- That was a bunch of trips all in one. Some nights I only seen one or two snakes. The 12 glossy night was my best in numbers but the king was my favorite find, and my only find that night. The severe drought has really hurt things. Someone could find all that in one good night at Borrego during a normal year.

Is this a compilation of that areas hunts? Great shots! Love the smiley face King, the Lyre, and the SD Gopher (of course).

Nice shots all around. I need to get out that way!

What do you do when you spot on that road? Looks like nowhere to pull over with some dangerous curves when you are running out to snatch snakes. Is there much traffic out there?

There's very little traffic there in the night but you still want to hurry. That's what's good about Borrego very few cars with miles and miles of road.
