From the Ranger Vault; Shenandoah NP; The Joker's Demise

Bringing this one out from the Ranger Vault! This is one of our favorite early episodes and it was Nancy's debut as a "guest" host! A brutal crime was committed at Ft Eustis Military base in Virginia, and the suspects fled to Shenandoah National Park. A cool headed ranger lead the chase involving multiple law enforcement agencies to bring the bizarre criminals to an ending no one could have expected.
