I went camping last weekend with a few friends with the intention of FINALLY capturing some Uroctonus mordax -- the small species of forest scorpion native to Oregon and Washington (and yes, California too).
Success! I found two blacklighting on Saturday, thanks to some teamwork with my fiancee.
The next morning I went back for some rock-flipping and found a third that managed to get away. (Photo credit goes to my fiancee.)
For more pics and the whole story please see my post on ScorpionForum.
