We found this bug crawling across the tarmac at an airport in Wyoming in mid October. It was about 3 inches long.
It seems like an awfully large bug for where we are at.

Dear NutNut,
Though they are most common in the arid Southwest, it seems that Potato Bugs or Jerusalem Crickets can be found in most of the western states.
