Azusa Canyon Nicolas. In this case Kevin, the rock in question was close to boulder size, Matt had to use both hands and I had to grab the snake. Two man rocks in this case. The rocks and the snake where returned to there original position. After a couple quick photos.

Very nice! When you say rocks, do you mean boulders? I always wonder.
