Does anybody know the name of the agency of Law Enforcement patrolling the Olympic National Park? Is it the US Park Police?

The US Park Police are responsible for many of the "parks" and monuments in and around the metro DC area. They also patrol specific parks in San Franciso and New York. While they are under the NPS, those are the only areas they patrol, unless otherwise specifically designated.

The various National Parks, falls under the National Parks Service which has its own Law enforcement and Criminal Investigation Divisions. My experience has been, depending on the park size, either whatever is the main frequency or a specific law enforcement frequency.

I know the law enforcement in the park use the same frequencies as the other users, I was just curious as to the name of the agency. Thanks for the answers.
