Assuming no one was in immediate danger, I would leave it alone. Otherwise, wait until everyone calms down, get your supplies together and capture it and relocate it (hopefully within 1 to 2 miles).

Birders,
In my opinion, it may be more helpful to offer suggestions on how to handle a situation than to assign blame.
Bill Maynard, your explanation of how you've dealt with poisonous snakes is greatly appreciated.
Just my 2 cents.

I, also, can be contacted if in Douglas County, to remove and relocate a snake.

All, if anyone encounters a snake that they feel is a danger/problem in the Boulder area, please feel free to contact me. I am trained to handle rattlesnakes and I am called on to remove and relocate them from people's yards at least a couple times a year.
