My initial reaction was "panamint", but now that I study the pic a bit more, I gotta go with enyo as well...nice fat bugger too...The pattern and body structure (upon closer inspection) just don't seem right for a panamint...

yeah it looks sort of like an enyo, the picture is kind of fuzzy though and distant do you have a better shot?
She looks to be gravid or just flattened and soaking up the heat.

I concur, looks like a light phase C.enyo. Small head... At first glance I thought it might be C.v. lutosus...but that small head says enyo! So tell us!

Warming itself on the pavement on the Bay of LA road. It never moved. It stayed flat to the road the entire time we observed it. The only movement was it's tounge. All the other's we saw that night looked more normal in color and pattern. I had to move the snak off the road before we left. We only saw one other car, so I don't hink she would have ended up a DOR.
