2 sub-adult gopher snakes were found crawling in the open by different members of the party within 15 minutes. Only one vouchered.
An adult gopher snake was found in the same area in the same time frame (vouchered on www.naherp.com by Jeff Lemm). Another adult gopher snake was seen just five minutes later on the road after we had started driving down the hill (not vouchered).
