Sup /out/.

I just recently started hiking around my local area (southeast Ohio) and yesterday I ran into this fella hanging out along the trail. While I was taking pictures of him, a girl and her dog came up behind me and I stopped them and pointed it out. I wasn't sure what type of snake it was (now know it's a copperhead), but I knew it was venomous from the shape of the head. I tried throwing things by it (not at it), and it was seemingly unphased. We ended up climbing through thick brush to get around the part of the trail where the snake was. I kinda felt like a beta.

What would you have done in my position? Also post pics of dangerous shit you've seen innawoods
