ANYWHERE to go field herping in AZ...

Actually, that was a helpful comment. If you want good herping spots, don't rely on those that give you locales on a public herp forum, for they are generally not responsible field herpers.

OP, PM sent

So then she's supposed to know with mind powers? Asking on a public forum IS a good way to share information. It's comments like yours that would steer a new person away. Your comment conveyed a very snobby attitude.

Don't bother with a PM next time.

No snobby attitude intended. I sent her a PM, as well.

All I meant is that it's easier to just PM experienced herpers in the area, and they are more likely to then give out specific spots that on a public forum that poachers and collectors view, too.

That is simply incorrect if you want specific spots.

Right outside my hotel! I went out in Saguaro national park a few days and all I found was a WDB. Later I spent 2 days at a nice hotel on a golf course that had a "desert trail" and the sign said watch out for wildlife. I was the only one ever on the trail which was nice. I saw a nice WDB, a roadrunner and javalenas (sp?), there was also a bobcat around which I was not lucky enough to see.
