For Riown - No willies for me, I LOVE SNAKES!! I have only seen 3 in my 2 1/2 years in the Owens Valley, not nearly enough. I do get my fix in October at an Eastern Sierra Wildlife Care event, a collector from Bishop brings about a dozen and I handle every one of them.

A good place to see big rattlers near Bishop is between Keoughs and Big Pine.
I'm no suture for my future.
