~ REMINDER: It is rattlesnake season!
~ If the snake is relaxed... on a fire road, leave 8-10 feet of clearance to pass the snake. If there is no room to pass, keep a distance of 8-10 feet and give a couple of squirts from your water bottle on the tail end of the snake. Snakes naturally avoid water and will usually just slither away. Do not antagonize, poke or throw rocks at a snake!
~ If the snake is poised or rattling... Leave it alone!
HAPPY FOURTH!
