Notes
Snake was surprised as it basked on mule trail in canyon wash. When approached it rattled violently to make explorers aware of its presence. The rattler boldly stood its ground, then slowly crept into nearby vegetation while continuously rattling. Pinkish in color with a distinct black and white banded tail located just prior to rattles.
