Identify this Snake

[nogerorob]

Hello there,

My friend works out in the Nevada desert doing environmental science research. Her group came across this snake, and I was hoping y'all might be able to help us out in identifying it.

Hey Sharno,

They are high resolution shots, which are larger attachment than these boards will allow.

I thought about shrinking them, but then I figured experts would complain that they weren't detailed enough to make the guess.

They're just jpg's over yousendit. No need to be frightened.
