[RC] Rattlesnakes on the Olmstead Loop - sindy mccosker

I know that most of you that ride in the Sierra Foothills are aware that the rattlesnakes are out. 
 
This morning my dog was bitten by a rattler on our way back in to the parking lot behind the firehouse in Cool.  This snake was VERY close to the trail edge.  I ran her to the Vet and hopefully she will be okay.  This is the first time in 6 years she has been bitten by one.
 
Be VERY careful if you take your best friends out riding or hiking with you.  I should have left her home this morning.
