Making friends with a Common Garter snake

As I was descending from the top of a BEAUTIFUL hike up Azure Mountain this common Garter snake crossed our path. The snake quickly slithered away, but only after posing for a quick couple of photos!

I love seeing these guys on the trail. Soon they'll be hibernating, so it is fun to see them while we can!
