I understand that "squaw" is a Massachusett word meaning "woman," so why would she find it offensive?

This has been happening here in Idaho as well. I wonder if they'll change the name of the Grand Tetons (French for Large Breasts, am pretty sure).

They could save a lot of time and money changing maps and signs if they just renamed it 'Squab Peak'.
