laughing and telling jokes and marshmallows. The thought of marshmallows made me hungry. I finished my Pop Tart and went back inside to get hot chocolate. While I was in the cabin, I also got another cup of hot chocolate for my mom and went back to my tent to wake Mom. I walked down the pathway, holding the two cups of hot chocolate. As
of pain from my brother. I ran over to go check what was going on. My brother was bitten by an adult snapping turtle. I did not know what to do so I decided to pick him up, and carry him up the steep rocky hill to the tent. My brother -still crying in pain- was set down in the tent. My dad had sprinted up there first to get medical supplies ready. Luckily my dad had figured out it barely pierced the flesh. If it would have gotten his toe, he may have left with only four toes. I had done some research
One morning it was me and Able awakening by the kapo barking at us. I thought to myself this is impossible and kapo knows it. Able tells me to just listen to him and it will make camp more easier and less stressful. Able was my friend I meet just before we entered the camp, he looked out for me as well as I did. We were pretty good friends and nothing in the camp could change it. For breakfast the kapo gives us approximately 10 ounces of bread and some coffee. It was a little but we fought through
to find a nice and flat place to set up our tents. After an hour of searching, we found a nice spot and set up our tents. We had lunch and looked for some firewood. Night fell upon us pretty early. We lit the fire and told our scary stories around the fire and headed off to sleep. 2 tents, there was one that was just larger. Just one so we did rock paper scissors to see which pair got that. We lost the game so Jeffery and I had to sleep in a smaller tent.
Meta Description: The rain not only dampens a person’s mood but also the logs in the wilderness. See how to start a fire with wet wood now so you’ll be ready for it. Introduction: With a 3-season or 4-season tent at my disposal, one’ll think that my camping experiences are always fanciful. Personally, however, it becomes fulfilling not when I stake my shelter near a landscape but when there’s a campfire outside. Many old-timers may second that thought since the collected flames have various purposes
I walk into Summer camp when I see two lines forming. A line for sixth graders, and a line for seventh graders. My friend and I signed up as seventh graders, but a counselor walked my friend into the sixth grade line, not even knowing his grade. This was because he had a shorter height than many people. I then see people arguing over why that was wrong. This picture reminds me of all the problems Japanese Americans went through in Camp Harmony, and the soldiers who fought at Gettysburg. There are
For this pursuit we went to the Black Ridge Canyon Wilderness Area. Our leaders were Ben, Conner and Louisa. We attended this trip from October 9th through the 11th. This trip was very relaxing. It was hard to give up control and be in a group situation. Not having control of where and when we did things was hard for me. The most difficult issue I had was having no control over what food we brought on the trip. I have learned to keep a good balance of food when camping to keep my body happy. Letting

There was a running stream that ran from north to south a few meters away from where we were sitting, the fizzing of the leaves above us from the pine trees was very soothing and an eerie coyote cry made the night even more interesting. We were at the back porch playing fish or cut bait, a pretty simplistic but yet challenging board game that tested your ability to do fast decisions that wouldn 't affect the rest of your turn in the game. We had simple snacks and a charming background acoustic guitar
Day 1: The Blake forest is une of the most beautiful things I've seen. My friends and I were camping for the winter break before entering college, we thought we were going to have fun but that was our mistake. It was night when the real hell began, we were all sitting around the campfire telling the typical horror stories that our parents told us when we hear a branch break. "Who's there?" I ask but nobody answered, suddenly saw a woman 25 years I started walking towards us, "Who are you?" I ask
