    Just got home from Whiting where I was having one of those 'less than perfect' rides, when what do I see in a streambed next to Mustard-- but a fox with a snake in its mouth!

    Next to a mountain lion pup that was sitting and watching me from a clearing near Edison trail, this was the coolest thing I've seen in Whiting Ranch. :)

    I was there tonight. So you saw a mountain lion pup near Edison Trail? You should call the ranger station and leave a message of what you saw and when. Darn, I wish I would have saw that. Were you with the crew that left at about 6 p.m.?

    Tarantulas!

    If you want to see some truly insane tarantula action.... Head to Chino Hills State Park in the Fall anytime during October during they're migration. Last year a buddy and I counted something like 25 of them on the trail within a 10 mile ride. It pretty much got ridiculous! Overgrown single tracks that time of year..... NO THANK YOU! (They were hanging from the branches about face level.) :wave:

    I should have been more clear.. I saw the pup a couple years ago. I was just glad I didn't get its mom's attention. :-k

    Last night I went in a little later.. Most of the animals I've seen, other than deer, were out just before dark. I used to see skunks once in awhile, and they'd just linger on the trail with their tails in the air-- daring me to try to get by? I've ended up riding out in the dark because they held me up so long :lol:

    Teebird,

    I was with the crew that left at 6. I didn't see any wild life at all. Well I did see a lizard or two but that was about it.

    I was riding a Niner and had a The Path Bike Shop jersey on.
