My wife and I travelled around your interesting State several times with our travel trailer along with our sons. Here in Northern New Mexico (where I live, we don’t have any poisonous snakes, so we don’t have to look for them while in our forests, it’s most likely because I’m at 9,000′ and I hunt at around 10,000 to “almost” 11,000′ not that often at 11,000′).
