Re-entry had two paths: jump in or walk further along the edge and then cling to a rope tethered to the rock along the river bed wall. Jumping required only 20 feet down precisely in the center of the river into 42º waters. A few chose to climb the long way around, while most of our crew leaped forth and braved the razor like sharpness of this frigid water. Oh how refreshing this splash was for all. It was very, very, very cold. Like falling into snow cold. Once all were accounted for, we…
In this essay I will be talking about a Modernist era writer. This writer mostly wrote poems, and his name was Robert Frost. Some of his most famous works include “Mending Wall”, “The Death of the Hired Man”, and “Birches”. All three of these poems were actually quite hard to understand and dissect, but after reading them a few times over i was able to do it. The first poem we will take a look at is “Mending Wall”, written in 1914. After that we will pick apart “The Death of a Hired Man”,…
Zoo in the hope that she will breed in the next few years (Meet the Orangutans). Batang has pale skin on her face, and is smaller than the Zoo’s other female orangutans (Meet the Orangutans). I hypothesize that, despite the numerous possibilities to climb and get off the ground, Batang will spend most of her time on the ground.

they growl, or bleat like a goat. Giant Pandas do not hibernate, instead they move into areas that are warmer. For example, during the winter the Giant Pandas do not stay in the mountain ranges, they climb down and stay in the cool forest. When the temperature is too hot in the forest the they climb up and live on the mountain…
level and say "No more". Shockingly, there are those that need to join the group but would prefer not to endeavour to climb any higher than they began. The move to the corporate peak can be laden with risks, perils and falls, and even corporate death. Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world at an altitude of 29,098 ft. However, it is not considered the most difficult to climb. But it is guarded with nature’s defences like the harsh weather at high altitudes and extremely low…
the souls must carry a heavy boulder on their backs and climb up the Terrace. They learn the opposite of pride this way, humility. Their posture is bent under the weight of the boulder, continuously in a bowing, obedient stance. Their position also allows them to see what is on the side of them. Depicted on the wall is several carvings that illustrate examples of humility that they can contemplate on their climb. Dante experiences the climb with them briefly and afterwards “the thoughts [he]…
