Vaejovis spinigerus
Jason it looks to me , like a healthy specimen of the Arizona Stripedtail Scorpion (Vaejovis spinigerus). Do you have any estimate on size/ length and possibly a closure/ better focused photo ? Kari J McWest could fine tune the genus . Their Stings are very Painful . Gene St. Denis

Vaejovidae Family
Possibly something close to this one from your state, but wait for the experts to tell you. I'm not yet sure how to verify the genus.
Kovarikia williamsi: Good Luck and WELCOME TO BUGGUIDE!!!!!!!!
