In 2009 I only saw 3 Desert Glossy Snakes, Arizona elegans eburnata. From a distance or at speed they look superficially like gophersnakes, but that long nose and almost rat-snake looking face makes for a good find. They’re really cool snakes, and I really wish I found more of them. Every one so far looks a little different.
