The Yellowstone Park Expedition

It’s the day 68 and we are still here in Yellowstone Park. I woke up in the middle of the night in my tent. Something told me, “You are not safe here.” I wondered amongst the tents to see if someone has woken up too. There were three tents in our camp. In the first tent Jane, Alexandra and Theresa. And in the second tent Billy, Jack, and John. I was alone in the last one. My tent was actually really empty as it was for three people. I went to take some food. I took just a chocolate bar so I have something for the remaining days. We are trapped. Yes, we are trapped in the middle of nowhere and nobody came here. My phone doesn’t have any battery left so I can’t call for some help. I sat on the ground next to all my equipment which contained a flashlight, a portable cooker, some food and water, a pickaxe and a shovel with a backpack next to it.

We stayed there for half an hour and then we went. I was still thinking if we are alone in the Yellowstone or not. Then Billy stopped me, “Are we going the right way? ‘Cause I see waterfalls which I shouldn’t.” We went the wrong way. Hayden Valley was approximately seven kilometers away from us. We had a big dilemma if we should walk to Hayden Valley or stay and walk to Hayden Valley the next day. We voted. I first asked,”Who wants to stay a night here?” Billy, Jack, and Theresa raised their hand. Now we knew it is all tied up. I decided that we will stay a night here because we were tired, it is 7:37 P.M. already and we are not even half way there. I sat on the ground when I saw smoke coming from the distant fields. Now the hypothesis that we are not alone here is more and more
