Reptile scare

So the guy camped next to us is a local that has been coming here for 35 years, back when the place was called Rattlesnake Canyon. He relates that this place holds more rattlesnakes than any other that he has seen. So when the wife lets out a shriek as we're folding up the tent, you wish you had warned her as you had thought about and intended to do. At first glance, the little reptile discovered under the tent corner caused a brief scare. But he was lethargic enough to get a pic - I then picked him up and set him up on a rock in the sun where I was able to snap another picture before he warmed up and scooted off.
