Just saw a tv program on snakebite a week ago...about a Palm Springs ( CA)
doctor who is a snakebite expert and treats dozens a year. He says snake
bite kits don't work...only antivenin works. Bottom line, get help.
On my thruhike in distance between Campo and Tehachapi, I saw 4 rattlesnakes,
only one of which was an anus-clenching adventure. Others saw more.
No Way
