I’ll pass your compliment on to the article’s author. Great advice. Leave them alone and they will return the favor.

Having encountered a good size rattler at Fraesfield Trail last week, I wondered about the wisdom of returning to hike at that beautiful area again this week.
The rattler was formidable and it seemed less aggressive or eager to strike, than simply in a loud warning mode. Since they reportedly spring just under the distance of their length, we decided to take a few quick adrenaline-laced photos, out of range, with a zoom of course. We weren’t threatening & didn’t linger.
The trick, of course, is to be vigilant, walk only on trails & react quickly into the opposite direction of the rattling!

We should all be able to live in harmony, right?
