Adams Canyon Waterfall
Went up to see this waterfall today. Crowded, but a great hike nonetheless.

Did you kill the snake and eat it? I heard rattler shiskabobs are pretty tasty!!

Nah, he was just a little guy. Wouldn't have been much of a meal. Maybe next time.

Hey! Great pics, looks like you guys had a good time. Sorry I wasn't able to make it... had some stuff come up Friday night, and I wasn't able to get to bed 'til nearly 4am... morning just came waaaaay too quick. If it would have been a couple hours later, might have still been able to swing it, but, we'll definitely have to make it one of these next times!
Y'know... it's funny, all the hiking I did last summer on & off-trail up along the ridge above Snowbasin... never did see a single snake. Maybe I just got lucky!

I tried to get the snake to rattle, but he just wouldn't do it. Guess they are more docile than I thought. I didn't see a rattler at all last year. Makes me wonder how many I passed and didn't even notice.

Did you see any mountain bikers ? I have ridden up there several times. I like the downhill, technical rock sections. I have yet to see any other bikers up there. I wondered if bikes are even allowed up there. I have heard that there are several rattle snakes up there, although I have never seen one. That was a great shot of snake and proof that they definitely are around.

After you get to the trailhead, just head up the canyon as far as you can go. Its a fairly easy hike, 3.5-4 miles round trip.

If you go there take every thing out of your vehicle. Last time I was there I pulled into the parking lot and every car had the window smashed in and there was a cop there writing police reports about every one.
Any one ever have or see any problems like that?

I have never had a problem. But, it is a good idea to keep valuables out of site, or leave them home.
