According to the USGS 7.5 minute topographic map for Hiawatha, Utah, this is Chris Otteson Hollow. There is an old trail in the Hollow. It is difficult to say whether Chris built it, and it has lately fallen into some disrepair. At any rate, VSO and I scrambled up it for a couple of hours this afternoon. Beautiful and rugged. Winter has gone from the sunny ridges, but in the bottom of the Hollow there is quite a bit of deep, crusty snow. Not only does it make hiking difficult, but it makes it slippery. On the way down, I ate it like a rat and got some road rash. Otte rash?
