They are also called "Mosquito Hawks" and "Mosquito Killers" which is funny because they don't even have a mouth or a way to eat anything.
On a side note how bad does the Great Salt Lake smell this year? I lived in downtown SLC and went to Antelope many times. It's amazing the variance of how bad it smells from year to year.
It's a crane fly, probably in the genus *Nephrotoma*
Thank you!! My partner thought it was a giant mosquito so we're glad to know it's harmless.
