85 degree air temp, about 100 in the rocks.   Those are always great snake days. :chuckle:

That looks like a good one, but I've only seen a few wild ones in my life, that was a few to many.  I was south of Pilot Rock this weekend with my dog, I was stepping lightly but was more concerned for her.  Are dogs more immune to bites, or is there a shot you can give them if bit?  I was going to research this before taking her back in snake country this year again now that its warming up.
When you see the third, thin the herd.
Right now I'm somewhere picking up sheds.
