Timber Rattler on initial scramble
Have climbed this multiple times - first time I've ever encountered a timer rattler on the trail itself. 3-4' adult on the Mt. Frissell trail at the first scramble. We came about 6 inches from stepping on it as it blended in with the leaves and logs.
Be mindful folks - while the trail is fun and easy you never know when something like this or a rogue thunderstorm might hit.

Steep up, Steep down
Great hike on a great sunny summer day. Fun to follow and wonderful views from the top.
