You can always have your food and snacks in the parking lot but not inside the park
Picnicking is prohibited in the park. I am not sure if that extends to the parking lots, but they are within the park. I would ask a park ranger, or ask at the visitor center.
Lol don't see why not, didn't see anyone patrolling or anything! Plus not actually in the park..hope this helps
