On the way back, we diverted onto Huskey Gap Trail over to bc#21 (the new one) to see if anybody was there (spotted at least 1 tent).
Along the HGT we passed what I guess is a timber rattlesnake chillin at the edge of the trail.
It was motionless, it never rattled or showed aggression. It was determined to be best to encourage it away from the trail with a long branch.
It was a big fat beauty, and I didn't know they came so dark - that's the only reason I noticed it.... the blackness stood out in the brown terrain. Steve Irwin over there with the stick was in heaven and lamenting the fact that he couldn't bring this snake home. *eyetwitch*
Also here's a freaky fungus. I'm going to be classy and say it looks like a heart.
