While driving through the monument a Gila Monster crawled right in front of us. We blocked traffic until it was safe in the underbrush

I Live 7 miles away and last week I drove the loop and saw 3 Gila Monsters crossing in a half mile space. At this time of year there is some great great horned owl nests. From Rick Bishop

That would be pretty great to see a Gila Monster.
About how big was the one pictured above?
Maybe you could have put your hand next to the lizard for a frame of reference (jk)

We will tell you how to find the lizard and you can put your hand next to it. Once bitten, they don't let go. It might be with you for a while.

Rick, these were my husband's photos. He hadn't noticed I'd not logged out. Your name is familiar to me, though. Did you frequent Sponsored Projects at the UA "back in the day?" I was Mr. Wheeler's admin. asst.

(Marlynleis1)You may be thinking of my dad Jerold Bishop. Dad taught graphic's at the U of A for 34 years, and my 3 brothers all took art classes there between 1977 and 1991. A lot of peopel say I look just like my dad looked in the past.
