Looking back at some of my photos from the past I saw a couple pictures of the state champion cherrybark oak taken 8 September 2004. I remember going to Heron Pond and the boardwalk, I just wasn't sure if I had actually visited the big tree or just saw the signs. Well, that confirms I was there! I don't know how I failed to remember a tree like that🤔. That was about the time I started riding on Tunnel Hill trail, which I haven't done in a long time now. Not sure if I even came by bike or drove on that visit. I don't remember seeing a single snake there either, let alone a serpent multitude like you encountered. Well, thanks for the in-depth video that showed me all that I've forgotten over the last twenty years. I think it might be time for a return visit.
A lot of folks pass by snakes and not even notice them. We look for them haha
At the 18:38 minute, was that a trail camera? Pretty awesome looking place. Thanks for the video.
No. Those are homemade bird houses for warblers. They're doing a study on them there.
Cool area. I've explored areas not too far from there walking RR tracks.
I hear a lot of folks do that. Hope you're doing well, sir!
@@HikingWithShawn surviving the heat out here in Arizona waiting for the monsoon to kick in full force
It’s been really hot there as well. Probably not as hot as your area tho!!
@@HikingWithShawn I'd say, "it's a dry heat", but when the monsoon is monsooning, humidity can get up there too. No complaints, things are moving.
I thought you lived in Hurst
I grew up there and lived there for a long time. I've lived in Massac County for a few year now with my fiancé.
Rat snakes are far more impressive than their name implies
I agree!
