Red Racer

Leopard Lizard
| I also saw this Leopard Lizard on the road. 
Rock Art
| The area's large collection of petroglyphs is a sight to behold. Some are at eye level, while others are high up on rocks. I'd estimate that there are hundreds of etchings in a quarter-mile area. Click here to see another petroglyph How about one more petroglyph? 
Another Side
| A colorful Side-blotched Lizard. 
Surprise Snake
| While gazing at the rock art, I saw something out of the corner of my eye approaching me. It was working its way down a slope and eventually fell, landing at my feet. It was a Patchnose Snake. It seemed to want to get its photo taken. Click here to see a Patchnose Snake close-up How about one more photo? 
Rocky Road
| Then it came time to do some boulder climbing. 
Little Chuck
| If you sit high up and wait awhile without moving, the Chuckwallas will come out.

Deadly Diamondback
| After doing some moderate climbing, a plateau is reached. There's a huge granite slab that must be crossed. Once I made it to the other side, I found this Western Diamondback Rattlesnake. I was stoked, it was my first Nevada WDB. Click here to see a Western Diamondback Rattlesnake close-up How about one more photo? 
Granite Narrows
| After photographing the snake it was then time to make my way through the "granite narrows," which have been sculpted by water. They look a bit like abstract art and are quite cool inside - especially when there's a breeze passing through. Click here to see another photo 
Waterfall
| Finally, after a short hike through a nondescript area, the waterfall can be encountered. It's a very cool place, with plenty of wildlife around it. Click here to see another photo of the waterfalls 
Living in a Desert Paradise
| A Spiny Lizard. 
Gopher It
| On the way back I saw a Gopher Snake. Click here to see a photo of this Gopher Snake "as found" How about one more photo? |
