Last year Kevin, Bryce, Claude, Tyler, Tama, me and a few other people met up for a trip to snake road....was a really good time and we got to see a bunch of cool animals....

Kevin's Pictures (http://www.reptileradio.net/reptileradio/showthread.php?t=6831)

Some of mine (http://www.reptileradio.net/reptileradio/showthread.php?t=6790)

Last Year's Thread about it (http://www.reptileradio.net/reptileradio/showthread.php?t=4226)

Well Kevin and I were talking about when we (he mainly since he has to put in the vacation time now for next year) and we came up with the last week of April thru the first weekend of May 4/24-5/2 being the time we would be heading down...we aren't going to spend the entire week there but a good 5 days this time since the long weekend last time didn't even give us enough time to get way up in the bluffs....

DNR site (http://www.dnr.state.il.us/lands/landmgt/PARKS/R5/GC.HTM) with most of the information about the camp site and what not...we stayed in one of the cabins last year but given that we will be spending more time down there we are definitely going to break out the tent this year...

Cool trip and all are invited 2nd annual BLBC trip...all the info is there and Kevin is really the go to guy with the questions about it all since this will be our 2nd trip and last time I talked to Bryce neither of us think we could find the road again if we tried :lmao:

We have to make sure some of us are there on a Saturday night so we can call in and give a herping update unless we can convince Larry and BT to do the show from the road....

Snake boots are suggested but at least knee high water proof boots after seeing how far the swamp was flooded last year and it looks like it is going to be a wet winter...if we time it all right like last year we were tripping over cotton mouths on the road and I plan on bringing lens cleaner since the venom didn't do anything for my lens last time...

:rockon::rockon::rockon::rockon::rockon::rockon:

Will schedule my time off today at work. Was a lot of fun last year.

where the bleep is the place ?

Cant wait! We plan on being there but with the misses in tow, we will be staying in a cabin I am sure.

Damn that looks like fun but it's a looong way from me and I don't have a tent, or boots lol!

Wish i could go but im making a florida trip.:cheers:

Right now I am lucky if I have time to go check the maiL!!!!

Wow great photo's by both of you! Looks like an awesome to spend the day! :cool:

where the bleep is the place ?
ck

Very southern tip of Illinois (about 6 hours from my neck of the woods), giant state park down there and this one little road where all the migrating takes place...seriously cool stuff.

Lots of time to plan....all kinds of reptiles down there so you can hunt day and night to see them all...we didn't have enough time last year to get very far up the bluffs but this year I want to find a timber out in the open and not tucked away still sleeping...

Cant wait! We plan on being there but with the misses in tow, we will be staying in a cabin I am sure.

The cabins look so beautiful! The whole place looks beautiful. I hope it all works out because I would absolutely love this place!

You better make it to Tinley! We will take up a collection to fly you out because we will be staying this year!

Yes you will make it....need another woman around this year.:wamma: And you can sleep in a tent if I can. It will be an experience that's for sure.

The tent doesn't bother me. Not having running water when I have to pee every 30 minutes is a definate issue and I am not sure I want to do that in the dark! :lmao: Daytime I can survive!!!

oh come on man we can make the trip...it's probably only another 13 drive.....:lmao:

I can't sleep on the ground anymore. So last year I bought a self inflating mattress.
I slept like a baby.
The bathrooms are clean and near by.
The bluffs are right next to the road with the swamp on the other side of the road.
You can climb bluffs if that's your thing.
Or walk with me on the road and wait for the youngsters to make the finds.
It's a great trip and if you love herps you should see it at least once in your life.

Yo might even make it without seeing arizona! :lmao:

Sorry Im a bit late on this.

If ya have any specific questions... feel free to ask.

I have been approved for my time off.... and I will probably be there Thurs - Sunday. There is several trails at camp and you can blow all day at the road if you like. A couple years ago we walked the road that morning then grilled out on the road during the hotest part of the day and then herped till after dark.

Yo might even make it without seeing arizona! :lmao:

Darn I was hoping that might be a stop on the way out :lmao:

I need to come up there sometime.. Sounds like an awesome trip..

I take it this is where you all go? http://www.fs.fed.us/r9/forests/shawnee/recreation/rogs/snake-migration.pdf

I'm only a few hours away, but May is bad with all the end of school year stuff. It might be fun to go during spring break, which is the end of March. If we go, I'll let you know how it goes....

Yeah that's a short summary on it...

It might be still to cold but you never know...I think it was mid april last year and the timbers still weren't out yet...

yep.... I doubt you will find many snake out in March.

Hitting the migration dead on is always a crap shoot... especially when you plan this far out since it all depends on the weather... but NORMALLY middle of April to first part of May is when they really start moving. Question is... are you gonna nail the migration... or catch one end or the other..... to early to tell. I can say this... we will have fun.

Larry..... you and BT come on up.... hell.... do the show from camp..... how cool would that be. IF needed... I will supply the laptop with wireless connection.

Scheduled my time off from Friday the 23rd through that following Sunday. Hope they approve it.

If I don't get a job soon, we won't be able to make it.

If I don't get a job soon, we won't be able to make it.

Well I hope you find one soon. Would love to have you both there.

If I don't get a job soon, we won't be able to make it.

I can understand that. But this is an in inexpensive little trip.
Little 4 man tent. Sleeping bags. $5.00 a night for the campsite.
Some hotdogs over an open fire. Stay 2 days or as long as you want.
The only real expense is the memories that you won't have if you don't go.
It's a great time and we would love to share the trip with you. :cheers:

ill have to look into this after i get to my new duty station. columbia, sc here i come.

Snake boots are suggested but at least knee high water proof boots after seeing how far the swamp was flooded last year and it looks like it is going to be a wet winter...:

I think I need chest high boots:lmao:

Can't wait for this trip again, it was an absolute blast last year and I think that going a week or two later will be a good thing for seeing more snakes:rockon:

Bryce you just need to stay OUT of the swamp. Wading through the shallow parts was bad...but taking a swim in it was a little much.:lmao::lmao:

What fun is staying out of the swamp.... I flooded my boots on a couple of occasions.. and they are dang near knee high.... but I also got the shot I was after... so no complaints.

THANKS Kevin. You were reading my mind.....Now I can settle my days off at work. Let ya know what are plans are soon.

I should be at camp around noonish on the 29th. After I get camp set up (unless Im expecting someone to show up shortly) I am going to go check out some of the trails at camp (there are ALOT of them)

I plan on doing alot of hiking and herping on the 5 days I am there. My goal is to find enough stuff so I come home with over 4000 images to process. For anyone that is going... I am more than willing to help you out on improving your photography skilz if you so desire.

Another update.

I may be cutting my trip one day short and coming back on the 3rd instead of the 4th. Im trying to get one of my members from HF to join us, but she has to be back home on the 4th... and I will be her ride.

Will let you know for sure if I have to leave a day earlier than I originally planned.

This is new this year....will help people find it much easier since the directions in the past seemed a bit lacking...lol

Negative.... North end. More parking

Since we are staying longer we are tent camping...which means we have to go shopping for some stuff to make it comfy.:cheers:

Camping since you can't cook at the cabins...goofy rules...

After walking that road all day comfy is good.....although I think I could sleep anywhere if after a long days hike!

I don't know if we are going to make it that week, with kids still in school. But we are going to keep it on the short list of places to go this spring.

Last year I took Ty out of school for one day. His teachers and the principal thought it was a great educational opportunity.
His science teacher even gave him an assignment to write down all the reptiles he saw. He got extra credit for the great pics. We drove down on Friday. Came home on Sunday.
It is unbelievable to walk down a road and see Cottonmouths sitting there with there mouths open.

This is true. Exhaustion will help with sleeping.

Air mattress worked great last year. Won't go camping without it. :)

Have one, need to get a small heater (great idea from Kevin).

I am surprised at how many tennies I see in that pic! (Unless it just looks like it cuz pants are pulled over boots)

Wood ticks. If I'm out I pull my socks up over my pants. I hate wood ticks!!!
No venomous snakes around here, so don't need the boots, but southern MN has them! (Rattlers as well as wood ticks!)

Have to order ours. I hate mail ordering shoes.

I ordered mine from Cabela's and I couldnt be happier.

All of this snow I have on the ground here is making me wish for April even more. As it currently stands.... we will have one more in the group and I will be leaving SR on Monday vs the original Tuesday. Tama.... you wont be the only female this time.

That is only a 2 hour drive I may have to at least come down for a day looks like a blast...

Yep.... if your gonna show up... I dont have any problem giving you my cell so you can locate me.

You will definitly have a blast if you decide to join in the fun. Me and Josh (other admin from HF) are planning another cookout on the road again this year.

What we did last time was get to the road about 10am.... walk it up and back.. which put us back at the parking area around 1pm..... then everyone that wanted to participate thru some food on the grill (I'll be supplying this) and we kicked back and relaxed for a while and ate some lunch. We then took off again hiking and herping into the night.

It was a blast.

Tama... I think current count is You and 2 more females from HerpFamily.... granted that is always subject to change if we can get some of our female members here to attend.

How can anyone get worn out when we stop to take pictures every 10 feet I think...lol

I am bringing my hiking stool with me when we go this year...I got this collapsible tripod stool that packs in nicely and is a blessing when you are in areas where you can't sit down, like a place full of leaf litter and venomous reptiles :rockon:

every 10 feet..... your hoping for a slow trip.... I was thinking every 5 to keep it interesting.

Can't wait to go to SR. But do need to start 'the list' for shopping.:rockon:

Dont know bout ya'll... but Im gettin a little anxious.

I shot this tonight

YouTube- Night Herpin 03-08-10

Well I think a bunch of us from the Chicago Herp Society are going to be down there at the same time with our speaker from that months meeting Jeff Lemm. It is a great time down there for sure and well worth the trip. There are some things worth pointing out to first time visitors (and some veterans who seem to forget or feel special)

-No snake hooks or tongs allowed
-No collecting of anything on the road
-Technically no touching (No "harassing")
-Every object (log, rock, ect..) should be put back in the exact same place as before you touched it, or in the place it was before the jerk before you rolled it 5 feet away
-Ticks are all over and lyme disease is present (got it 3 years back) so be very careful and aware of the tiny ticks
-Tons and tons of poison ivy
-venomous snakes are all over so be very careful of hand placement and don't try to go Steve Irwin with tailing everything

The video linked showed a bunch of people handling animals and a couple forestry guys with hooks moving hots even though they do not allow that and the rangers can ticket you for it. I love getting down there but I am too big to camp. I need a hot shower and somewhere to do a tick search. A crappy bed is still better for me than a air mattress, my back can't take those. I think I am going to have to search out the campsite this year for the camp fire BSing. I know a large group from FieldHerpForum.com goes down every year as well. They might be going the same weekend which will make for some crazy fire side times. :cheers:

Just thought I would share, I stopped by Gander Mountain today just to see if they carry Snake Boots in Stock and they do for those of you that do not like to order online or don't have a Bass Pro Shop close. They only had three different types two were priced at $129.99 and the other was $79.99.

Once I get my expense check I am going to pick up a pair and have already asked for a few days off work. Can't wait to come and check it out.

Going to give them a buzz here, our cabelas and bass pro both don't stock snake boots this far north....I think we were lucky enough to find the shin ones last year locally...might be worth checking out if they have them, save a few dollars on shipping that way and I can try them on which is always a fear buying online...:cheers:

If you end up with the same idiot I did on the phone and it isn't to far of a drive I would just stop by :p......It made my life alot easier to say thanks and drove over and looked for myself :rolleyes:

They must have moved there from Cabelas because last year they told us they had them in stock and when we drove over there they didn't have anything...:lol:

i would love to tag along, will be my first snake rd trip

Looks like a great time "cheers"

UPDATE.... due to flight plans I will be changing my dates for the trip. I will still be there when everyone is during the weekend but we will be arriving earlier and leaving sunday.
