Notes
Can you see it in the first picture coiled up under the grass. I couldnt either. 4 footer. I had my feet straddled directly next
to the Ruber, as I peered into a crack directly above him. I didn't notice him until it was too late. About jumped out of my boots.
Second picture is after the Ruber retreated into the rocks
