We came across this snake on a bike path on Mackinac Island in Michigan. I have viewed all 17 of Michigan's indigenous snakes and it doesn't seem to be any of them. I think it most closely resembles the Massasauga (rattlesnake) but if so it was young as it had no rattles. The body is sort of thinner than that though. I'm really curious if anyone recognizes it. Thanks.
