Does anyone know how Jacks got its name? I always wondered why they called it 'Jacks Canyon' and not something else.

Happy Sending!

It is a name on the topographical map, the whole canyon is very long. Unfortunately, Long canyon was already used for a neighboring canyon or we would be climbing that instead. M
