some nasty individual took a dump right next to the rail road ties at the main trailhead. By the fire pit. Still cleaning my shoes... I marked it so hopefully no one else "steps in it." Ugghhhhhh

I suppose it could have been, but that would have have been one HUGE dog. I am thinking Lycan is more probable. I also saw a pair of boxer shorts on ground 15 feet away close to a tree. Either way, for WED night AJ ride...but careful guys when you stop to rest. I am practicing my trackstands.

Another possibility is river otter scat. I have seen plenty of it along the tow path. it looks about the same as dog, 1/2 to an inch in diameter. However unlike dog, it will have the scent of rotting fish and will most likely have scales or crayfish shells in it. Here is a crappy pic of it.

You sure it's not from that zebra standing on the stairs?

Okay, so let's get this straight...it was either a Lycan (who could have possibly worn the boxers)... or zebra (incriminating hoof shot)... or otter (big poop)... Should we keep collecting theories or vote on the culprit?

First of all, we need a pic of the actual "dump", right next to the RR ties... MD

In keeping with the poop theme, I'll offer one more possibility. It's a little far fetched, but.... Mutuant toad. Regular toads can drop a load that's a significant percentage of their body weight, so a larger than normal mutant toad could be a nasty thing indeed. Spotted this guy earlier in the summer on a walk around the neighborhood. You have to admit, that's pretty impressive.
