May 31, 2009
we were camping with our kids and found this under a rock around an old fire pit.. we went to another camp site and found 2 more there also in the fire pit.. It has 6 large legs under it and very strong pinchers. it was about 3 inches in length. we have never seen anything like this before and dont know if it is harmful or not..

This is a spectacular Hellgrammite, the larval form of a Dobsonfly. We are sorry our reply took so long, but today we are randomly selecting from among our unanswered mail.
