I'm was coming down the mountain in the Pine Valley Range earlier today after an all day scouting trip and was in bit of a hurry because food was calling....I go to duck under some low hanging limbs and come within 2 1/2 feet of stepping on a 5' Mojave rattler. He never rattled until I had jumped to the side and said a few explicit words. I know a rattler can strike up to half the length of its body so I'll scratch this one up as luck. Being new to Utah my snake lesson is learned. I got a pic of him and will try to post
