Adding a second station in northern Gold Canyon, along with the move of the other Gold Canyon station to U.S. 60 should significantly improve our response times in an area that needs improvement. - John Flynn



A well at this site would not be deep enough, only a narrow canyon not suited for water production. - Scott Harelson



A three-run lead in the Grand Canyon with that club is not a safe lead. But our guys, when they had to, made terrific pitches. - Mike Scioscia



A three-run lead in the Grand Canyon isn't safe with that club. They do a great job of pressuring you and they have power through the lineup. - Mike Scioscia

[Alongside the painstaking moments in the crevice are richly told tales of Ralston's prior adventures. After quitting his job as a mechanical engineer, he became an expert outdoorsman. The book finds him trekking along mountaintops, precipices and canyon floors around the world. Here, a bear stalks him; there, an avalanche buries him. He is always close to falling, being crushed or losing one appendage or another. The flashbacks provide relief from the intense pinned-arm drama, but also put Ralston's doomed Utah trip in perspective:] I wanted to show that I wasn't in over my head... This was something that was relatively low-exposure for me. - Aron Ralston
