Bo was stung by a scorpion our 2nd night on the river. He did not set up a tent and was sleeping out on the ground. After than he started to set up his tent. Is there more than one variety of scorpions along the river in the canyon?
I was stung by one at Kolob Arch in Zion and did not have to get medical help either?[/quote]
yes, as i remember there's 2 species of scorpion found in the grand canyon. one subspecies called the grand canyon slender scorpion is small and has a real nasty sting. the smaller the more dangerous.
