Hiking boot

My first experience of snow was like a snow globe, except it seemed whoever was shaking it wasn’t going to stop. Snow Globes are a model of a scene surrounded by particles of fake, white matter resembling snow, but when shaken it turns to a magnificent snowstorm. While I have many snow globes at my house collected from my childhood, this was the first one I was in. I think a lot about the countless times my dad has told me of stories of his childhood. His numerous adventures of snow days,…

Samuel are twins, we are very different. And this is proof from Splish and Splash themselves. First we’ll look at the covers of the books. Samuel is a fair amount taller. He also has longer hair. His’s main clothing is a t-shirt and jeans with hiking boots and a Monterey Bay Aquarium cap. Christian, on the other hand, wears tennis shoes, jeans, a button down shirt, and a green Gap jacket. They are also different in personality. Samuel is more of an edgy and outdoorsy kind of guy, but Christian…

Krakauer writes, "The only food in his pack was a ten-pound bag of rice. His gear seemed exceedingly minimal for the harsh conditions of the interior... Alex's cheap leather hiking boots were neither waterproof nor well insulated. His rifle was only a .22 caliber; a bore too small to rely on if he expected to kill large animals like moose and caribou, which he would have to eat if he hoped to remain very long in the country" (Krakauer…

zipper, Monster toppled over onto my boots, clipping the left one in such a way that it leapt into the air as if I’d thrown it. I watched it bounce--- it was lightning fast and in slow motion all at once---- and then I watched it tumble over the edge of the mountain and down into the trees without a sound. I gasped in surprise and lurched for my other boot.”(Cheryl Strayed “Wild” page 209). Cheryl Strayed is so brave and courageous even after she lost her boot she continued along the…

I have done plenty of challenging things in my life, but a few of those things were harder than others. Like a thirty mile hike. Right now you probably think I’m crazy for hiking up mountains for thirty miles! But I will never forget the experience of the beauty of the Sawtooth mountains and spending time with my grandpa. Also, I will never forget the massiveness of the three ridges we had to climb up. That was definitely not my favorite part of the hike. The hike started out at a lake called…

Clomp! Clomp! Clomp! Our boots pound the rocky Colorado trail in the middle of a cold, starry night above the massive tree line with a spectacular view of the lights of Leadville, as we hiked our first 14,000 foot mountain of the summer. Clomp! Clomp! Clomp! We have only just begun. Upward we trudge for several more hours. Following a long, boring drive with my parents, we were able to find Gold Hut East without any problem. I have to say when I got there it was really quiet,…

My friends are the people I mainly go with when I do outdoor activities with people, me and my best friend go hiking and canoeing/kayaking almost every other week in the summer as a way to relax and have fun because both of us prefer it to things other people out age might go do like shopping, going to concerts, or sporting events. Before I graduated high school…
