Being in the great outdoors can be good for the mind, body, and spirit.

Disconnecting and being surrounded by nature does sound peaceful.

But of course, where we find peace, we can often find chaos.

Today, we're hiking through some of the most majestic parks in the US, whose reputations

have been tested by murder.

And for some of these crimes, finding the killers was no walk in the park.

Hey all you weirdos, welcome to Crank Countdown, a Spotify original from Parkest.

I'm Ash, and I'm Elena.

This episode we're counting down the top ten state park crimes.

I love that sweatshirt.

I like looking at a spooky forest.

On Google.

Love it.
