All the trails at Cheyenne Mountain Park were back open on Sunday morning after mountain lion sightings on forced officials to close some trails on the southern end of the park.
A jogger spotted a mountain lion near a dead deer on Friday and that same animal is believed to have chased another jogger later the same day. A park ranger responded and shot at the lion, but found no evidence it had been hit.
Officials spent Saturday tracking the mountain lion and determined it had left the park.
