During a recent hike with him through the Zion Narrows, he not only guided our group of about 30, but was among the spryest of the party, being ready to help others whether over the rough spots, with their camping, cooking or whatever came to back-pac- hand. And on the trail and k around-t- campfire, the sheriffs wealth of stories helped the party keep its high spirits. And of course the recent drouth occasioned many stories.
