RT @hksbks: @Wild_Tribute A1) Campfires are at the top of my list, with stars and critter sounds a close second. #ParkChat

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS @WindCaveNPS when the ranger turned the cave lights out, I was amazed that I couldnāt even see my hand in front of my face. We have so few chances to experience total darkness. #parkchat

replying to @TrueNorthTrail @TrueNorthTrail @ArchesNPS You raise a terrific point. Most cave tours within the NPS provide a similar experience. Wild how dark, dark can get #ParkChat

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS @CavernsNPS Looking like bats are taking the win here! #ParkChat

replying to @Stars252525 @Stars252525 @ArchesNPS @CavernsNPS Yes! And I love that they eat mosquitos! #parkchat

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS @CavernsNPS A3) Anything that won't try to mess with my tent during the night. #ParkChat

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS @CavernsNPS A3) Owls were the first to come to mind. #ParkChat


replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS @CavernsNPS A3. The bison is the official mascot of #parkchat, but the bat may be its nighttime sidekick.

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @Stars252525 @ArchesNPS @CavernsNPS Really? I know they are amazing, but I have to admit they slightly creep me out. Of course there's you and the fruit bats. #ParkChat

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS @CavernsNPS #parkchat A3 from those we've seen, owls! But our favorite, still elusive nocturnal animal is the black-footed ferret.
