Story behing Priscilla's Rest Stop on path by Moose-Wilson?

When we were there in mid-May, I stopped on my walk back to Teton Village at a little spot called ';Priscilla%26#39;s Rest Stop.'; It%26#39;s on the walking/bike path that runs beside Moose-Wilson Road, just south of the GTNP entrance.

What is the story? I imagine the young woman was killed by traffic? It%26#39;s a lovely memorialization and a very lovely little spot with a log bench beside the creek.

Story behing Priscilla's Rest Stop on path by Moose-Wilson?

A little sleuthing turned up:

---------------------------------------

A new bench and pocket park

was recently constructed at the north

end of the Moose-Wilson Trail on the

Teton Village Road in memory of a

young woman, Priscilla Glickman.

“Priscilla’s Spot” is located on Snake

River Ranch Property and is a lovely

area to rest and enjoy views of the

Tetons. Bill Resor, his father Stanley,

and their families graciously provided

for the use of the SRA land. Friends

of Pathways is very grateful for their

support and generosity.

Sorry, I could not find absolutely definitive reference to the person that was not possibly another of the same name but the following seems likely:

---------------------------------

PRISCILLA GLICKMAN was 21 years old and about to enter her senior year at Princeton when she was struck and killed by a truck while bicyling last summer on Martha%26#39;s Vineyard.

The referenced mother, Gretchen Long Glickman, is also referenced many times as a supporter of the Wyoming Outdoor Council, of which Bill Resor is also a member and as referenced in the first clip donated Snake River Associates (SRA) land for the spot.

Thank you for the sleuthing!!! I truly appreciate it. I found the spot on my recent trip and was really struck by the loveliness of the view, the way the bench was made, the plaque wording. It seemed like a very spiritual place.
