Hiking


My sister and I went hiking in the desert the other day. We had a great hike and really got our heart rate up hiking up a slippery gravel hill. When we got to the top we found a rattle snake.

He was hiding in some weeds and camouflaged so we did not see him until I heard his rattle. He was moving towards my sister so she slowly/quickly moved away from him and we got out of there. It didn't take us very long to get down the hill after that! We had been warned to watch for snakes this time of year. They were right!
