Great shots, Chad! Thanks for getting those group shots. Can you email me all the group shots or link me to your flicker?

I had a great time, too, and I'm way glad you came. Thanks Chad! I like that one shot of the elegans with the scenic in the back.

Awesome pics. Boy, see what happens when I don't shave for two days! ewww lol

Awesome shots Chad! It was great meeting you, and everyone else. Boy, you're a herping machine! I hope I get to herp with you again, soon. I had a blast. I agree with Edgar, that shot of the garter draped over the rock, with the scenery in the background is SWEET!

Great shots Chad! It definitely was a fun trip.
It was crazy how well we were able to pose that baby mountain.
Thanks for the post!

Great pics Chad, I like the pic of the mountain garter on the light colored granite the best. I think because the snake stands out so nice against it.

Thanks Everyone! I really did have a blast! I can't wait to do it again!
It was great meeting, and hanging out with you Dev, and Mike. They are top notch guys!

Funny how everyone like'd that photo besides me! I wish the lighting was a little bit better on the snake, maybe I should have used some fill flash?

I personally like the in water shot of the little Garter.

Ross you need to post here more!


Thanks everyone.


Cheers,
Chad

Holy Cow Chad! Those pictures turned out sooo beautiful! I am so glad I wasnt the only one who had a blast. This was my first herping trip and I really appreciate edgar letting me tag along, as I had the time of my life! Its been way too long since I have been camping, and getting the opportunity to meet new people and do something I have never done before is exciting! Chad, thanks for your knowledge and willingness to share, I learned a lot from you this weekend, and look forward to future trips!
