Nice hike today, upper 70's and sunny. We did some exploring around Mule shoe canyon and Kane creek canyon. Spent time in the washes and up top too. I saw my first scorpion out here and it was a good sized on, I am glad I don't see them often
Some wild flowers are blooming and this Claret cup cactus

Nice pics. You got pretty close on that scorpy. Survivor man cuts off the stinger and eats them raw. I like mine fried with mustard.

About how long is the scorpion? I
saw a couple when we lived in the Middle East, but have not
seen any in North America.

Rod
I would say it was about 4 inches (10 centimeters) long
No one wanted to put their hand next to it for scale
Typically they are not that large here.

See you in Atlanta

Peter

I thought it would be a nice day for a hike and it did start out pretty nice, but some storms came through causing dampness on myself, but some great waterfalls in Pritchett Canyon. It isn't too common to be out in the rain here, and if you are out, you may see some great waterfalls, but they don't last very long. We saw some great ones today.
Earlier in the hike we were up on Tombstone rock and a young guy base jumped off it while we were up there before the rain.
Base jumping is jumping off a fixed position such as a cliff, with a parachute, pretty popular around here, but not for me. I don't know how you could jump off the first time. The recent rain will make some great flowers come out in the desert, such as this Yucca
