Day 7: Crow Pass

The dog on the bus goes “woof woof, woof woof.” But Sonnet’s dog, Tangle, was a surprise alarm to make all the students on the bus get up and get to work. Oh, when I was sleeping peacefully on that bus drive to Crow Pass, I suddenly felt this breeze on my shoulder that smelled like chicken. As I got up from my sleep, I noticed Tangle, the world’s most awesome dog, was right over my head, waiting for me to give him some love. So, when I was done giving him a pat on the head, I let him sit near me on the bus, by the window. Just as soon as he sat near the window, Tangle got more excited. He started to become hyper and jump up on the window and breathe over Faith’s long hair while she was sleeping peacefully. As Tangle whined softly near me, I thought it would be nice to howl with him for a good laugh, but, little did I know, Tangle was going to go off and make a big loud HOWL sound. It was loud enough to wake up all the sleepy kids on the bus. Queen here, hiking off to another trail.

Patrick here, reporting what we did on July 25. Everybody went hiking for one or two hours. We all did a great job. almost everyone made it up to the water fall, But we all know that the first group made it up furthest. Up near the waterfall there was a huge where we all sat. There was also a bunch of old mining equipment. The middle group made it up to the top of the water fall eventually. The last group didn't make it; they where only halfway there. Well, at least everyone did it. I would say it was an okay hike. It was a little hard because it was a steep mountain, but I don't think everybody liked hiking.

Hello there, this is Chelsea reporting for day 7 about my second day of hiking in Crow Pass.

Another day of hiking. I wasn't too excited about hiking, considering that we all had to walk up so many hills with heaving backpacks, uncomfortable footwear, and bugs slapping our faces. Although, it wasn't all bad. The view was beautiful, the mountain was so green, and it wasn't raining nor burning hot. Also, the walking part wasn't as hard as the first hike. We did go up a lot of hills, but thank goodness most of the trail was flat and not muddy. Everyone else seem to be having a good time. As we started to catch up with the others, I began to hear laughing, talking, and even a little bit of singing. Even I was having a good time. My back and feet where hurting, but I was all worth it because I kept seeing more and more reasons of how I believe Alaska is one of the most beautiful places in the world.

Thank you for the time of reading my report, and I hope you enjoyed the hike as well. This is Chelsea over and out. XD
