Really Big Snakes


Day 139: Serving as a Site Steward for a property accessed via an out-of-the-way rural road is always an adventure. In the years I've been patrolling Ohop Valley, I've come up with a number of unusual finds: a hardhat, two pickup loads of hydroton pellets (used in hydroponic agriculture), rolls of carpet padding, a sodden blanket, several elk carcases, an entire car bumper, and of course a selection of the more commonly dumped items like old lumber, television sets, a child's car seat, clothing and the ever-popular assortment of dead tires. Today's score included two short lengths of plastic pipe and two which were about twenty feet long...a pair of really big "snakes" I had a hard time wrestling into the little building where we store trash for later pickup.
