This past month, Steep Rock Campground became the scene of a curious mystery. Several sandals vanished without a trace, leaving campers scratching their heads.
At first, campers suspected pranksters were at work as footwear doesn’t go missing every day in the wild. It turns out the culprit is a sly fox and her kit darting between campsites with stolen sandals clutched in their mouths. The sight has left everyone amused. Some campers have dubbed the fox “The Slippery Sandal Swiper” and the “The Crox Fox.” This cheeky little family turned what could have been an annoyance into enjoyment for those experiencing this unexpected twist on camping life.
If you are one of the lucky missing shoe scandal mysteries, the sandal collection can be found at the outdoor Steep Rock mini library or in front of the main office.
