Currently in an argument- "too thin to be a Gila" vs "too beaded to be a chuckwalla"

Very sluggish, but it's only like 19c today. Maybe 25-30cm long

Very cool!! My opinion is that it is a thin gila monster

I found another image of a Gila monster with a similar color pattern - with the small black dots inside hexagonal orange patches: https://btarboretum.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/20230410_102910-1536x1536.jpg
