Scout camp out

A couple weeks ago, I went up Big Cottonwood canyon for a scout camp out. There are only 5 people in my scouts including me. On Friday, we left at 5:00 to go up to the camp sight to set up our tents. When we got there and set up our 6 man tent for us and a 2 man tent for the leaders we went straight to cutting wood! Since it was a six man tent for us 4 we had so much room. After we got done eating we went into our tent and just talked. While we were in the tent, our leaders came in and said they heard a mountain lion or a bear. I was REALLY scared all night because of that. I also heard many growls in the night and many moans. In the morning my leaders told me that they saw the bear in a tree and leap off the tree at a deer or moose. We wanted to see some blood or something so we went over there but there wasn't anything except for some poop. I can not wait for the week nighter and the 50 mile hike!!!!!!!!!!

Baptist Draw

Towards the end of September,I left to go down towards Moab with Casey, Alisa, Jared, Wendy, me, and my dad to do some repeling. Before the trip, I heard that the hike was 8 hours long so I was kind of nervous,but it wasn't that bad. While we were there we saw LOTS of Cripto so, it was kind of hard to walk. The first repel that I did was pretty scary because it was my first official repel. There were many drops and little puddles that we had to climb over also. The second repel that I did was 90 feet ( To Caseys couculation ) but I thought it was so cool!!!!!!!!! During the hike, I found many rocks such as some cool igneis rocks and petrified wood. It was a cool adventure!!!!!!!!!!!
