“The lake was very calm. Above, a bright summer moon provided unlimited visibility. Suddenly, just a few feet offshore, the surface parted with a swelling roar of angry water as a serpentine head reared high, swaying from side to side and leering with great red eyes” (Moffet 3). Since Bear Lake Valley was developed, stories of the Bear Lake Monster have circulated campfires, fishing boats, and cabin living rooms. These stories bring communities together. The people of Bear Lake bond over stories…

We finally left Independence Rock. We have been traveling for about 50 miles, and everyone's feet are getting very sore. Luke has the most blisters, but he knows that in the end this trip will be worth it. The sun is beating down on us, making us very sweaty and smelly. There are no trees, which means that there is no shade for us to cool down. The trail is sandy, and the temperature is getting up to 100 degrees. Well, I know that this hot phase will be over soon and we will now know what to…
