Campsite

name was Mr. Lynch. Two years since I joined cub scouts as a bear scout we went on a cub scout camping trip. Mr. Lynch said loudly, “Are you guys ready” We shouted back, “Yes” After that we got into our parents cars and was driven for 1 hour to the campsite and unpacked our stuff. Our camp site was in a forest and we were to sleep in sleeping bags in green tents for a week. When we finished unpacking it was after Lunch and we ran around the camp site. Over the course of two days of fun…

THE MOST AMAZING SUMMER!!! Do you have the most annoying siblings in the world? Well I do, and this summer felt really long, but it wasn't all bad and here is some of the not so terrible things that happened this summer. This summer was amazing because at the beginning of the summer, I went to Tobamory, with my 4-H club for the day to walk the Bruce Trails. It was the 50th anniversary, so I got to be on... you’re not going to believe it but... T.V. it was so cool but really awkward just…

There are no trails in Florida that will adequately prepare you for the Appalachian Trail. Not just the difficulties, but the beauty as well. When I made the decision to do a section hike with my friend Brian, I had a vague idea that it would be difficult and rewarding, but I had no idea just how much of an understatement that was. The first day began with a shuttle ride to our start point, thirty-five miles from Hot Springs, North Carolina, where we'd left our car. As soon as I stepped out of…

What would be your first reaction if you found a singing girl in the middle of a campsite with a human tongue necklace? The singing girl’s name is Mary Anne, and she was a straight- out-of-high-school student who went to go visit her boyfriend during war. She became very intrigued with the war which lead her to participate like a soldier. The things that Mary Anne saw taking place in the war transformed her into a killer, and during the war gender was irrelevant so Mary anne blended in like the…

“Okay, so, who wants to try to go to the summit tonight?” James took a glance around. He was holding the fire stick that had been at the campsite since last summer, his tall, lean figure tilting forward into it. His pale skin gleamed with sweat from building the fire as his eyes took in all the raised hands from beneath his darkened glasses—the pair my best friend Phoebe and I always made fun of him for looking so geeky in—which he denied were actually Transitions. James and I had become fast…

The Basseri are a pastoral nomadic society in southern Iran where the landscape for grazing animal is extremely difficult to travel, this terrain ranges from the desert to the mountains. The Basseri’s economy is mainly from rearing sheep and goats which are milked for producing cheese and butter. In the contrast to the United States, milk and cheese production has been commercialized into a multi-million dollar industry, creating white collar jobs that are high recognized in our modern society.…

Reservation, or Camp Hohn as everyone called it, was probably one of the worst weeks of my life. The camp looked nice on paper; it was described as a 120-acre camp on the banks of the Lake of the Ozarks, with bluffs overlooking the lake and many campsites,all surrounded by a five mile nature trail. However, they failed to include in the brochure that due to the camps size, the classes available to take were extremely spread out. To get to the waterfront, hiking down switchbacks was necessary.…

I made the choice to write this poem about the wilderness between Red Feather and Walden because I went on a deep woods camping trip there this summer and was captivated by how powerful the woods feel when you are far enough away from other people. I also found the amount of dead trees in the area to be very ominous, considering the beetle kill was likely over 70 percent in the area, not to mention the left behind elk skulls and deer hangs one can come upon hiking through the area add to the…
