They don't list that as being an animal that is in this park and if it was I don't think they would put in hiking trails. We were just curious as to who made the poop.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-16224509801899838232013-11-27T09:55:48.429-05:002013-11-27T09:55:48.429-05:00It was, thanks!

We had nothing to worry about with our hiking. The trails are well marked and there is nothing real dangerous out there other than the hot heat or stumbling on some of the rocks.
