Sssnake!

So the bulls were pretty scary, as was the rattlesnake in Grand Canyon National Park. But this snake was all black and I estimate if you held it up it would have reached from my toes to somewhere between my shoulders and chin. As I tried to pass him (by about a meter or so - I didn't want to go too far off the path and meet others!) he flattened his neck so it looked like a cobra does when about to strike. In doing some research in the library and talking to some of the rangers, it's either a tiger snake or a spotted black snake (see #'s 8 and 7). Deadly either way.

Whoo! Talk about needing to check your underwear.
