DL - the vertical portion of any horizontal well is stopped short of the payzone. You cannot bend the well bore 90 degrees into the zone. You stop short and then do a radius bend to get down to the pay zone and then out horizontal through the zone. The amount of radius bend depends on the drilling equipment technology employed for the well.

Bottom line is that you wouldn't penetrate the Squirrel with the vertical section of the well.
