Notes
Cerbat Cliffs. Flipped under flat rock on loose gravel-soil type substrate. Largest Sonora I've seen to date. Had a stub tail as well. Snake was found within the habitat picture. I have found other Sonora in this small canyon/area, and all have been striped. I found a DOR banded one apporx 1-1 1/2 air miles from this canyon.
