Starting off the day, I saw two different snakes within two minutes, a southern pacific rattlesnake (rattlesnake no. 6) and a gopher snake.

I am about halfway between Tehachapi and Lake Isabella, and directly east of Bakersfield.  The terrain in the second half of the day started looking a bit like the Sierra, and in fact I will be in Sequoia National Forest either tomorrow or the day after that.

It’s getting late and I'm tired, so no more to say today.


There’s a southern pacific rattlesnake in there if you look closely


Gopher Snake

It’s starting to look a bit more Sierra-like
