The p67 Snark loop is a period-67 oscillator and adjustable glider loop consisting of eight gliders circulating in a closed track between four Snarks.

With a minimum population of 228 cells, it is the largest SKOP in Life as of December 2024, the only SKOP with over 200 cells in its minimum phase, and the only Snark loop that is a SKOP.
