Wednesday Cliff Hanger (4) Another awesome, scenic trail (do you see a pattern here?). This trail turned out to be a little harder than the guidebooks would have you believe. This is an out and back trail that ends high atop Amassa Back, overlooking the awesome Jackson Hole, an ancient abandoned meander of the Colorado River.
The Story of Moose and Squirrel It was at about this point that the title of this trip report, and Steve and Mark's nicknames for each other were discovered... Over the CB we heard a guy asking where Pritchett Canyon was. We knew, and offered to show him. He said that he was trying to get ahold of some friends and would get back to us. A few minutes later he called back saying "Bronco and 4Runner... I need
those directions". To us the inflection in his voice, and the way
he said "Bronco and 4Runner" reminded us of Boris Badinoff on the Rocky
and Bullwinkle cartoon saying "Moose and Squirrel"... so I suggested we
go by Moose and Squirrel... Steve said "I'm not gonna be Squirrel"...
Well, Steve is much more Moose-like, and since some people call Toyota's
Squirrels (with Squirrel Motors), I accepted the handle Squirrel...
and so we shall ever be...
