Bay Area Discovery Site Hik Analysis

I decided to do the observation on one of the benches in the park next to the entrance to the hiking trails. This location allowed me to observe not just people who were hiking, but also people who were spending time in the park. The park was spacious

One summer my parents informed my brother Ben and I we were going on a trip to Yellowstone National Park. I had never been so excited for anything in my life. I had a passion and love for nature, and being that Yellowstone had some of the most beautiful and interesting geological features on Earth, I knew I would have a blast. They said we would be going in a few weeks, and I literally couldn’t wait. I kept asking questions upon questions, and finally, my dad just got annoyed. “Go research it, Juliette.” He said. “The internet will know more than I do.” I took his advice and went to research Yellowstone.

We went to southwestern Colorado to learn more about the history of the Anasazi Indians. The amalgamation of tribes which lived thousands of years ago in the American Southwest. We had brought along a minimum amount of cash (approximately $150.00 each). Because we were going to spend only one night in a motel and camp during the rest of the trip. We hiked many miles. Covering closes to twenty miles a day. Our entire club began to get tired and irritated on the third day. But the rewards were worth the effort. Although our trek was long and arduous. I will never forget the sight of the Mesa Verde cliff dwellings in the early morning sunlight on June

Among the many attractions of the San Francisco Bay area, there is a peculiar park within the city. This park is contoured by walls, intercalated by open gates. Seems that the park is a mini town, inside San Francisco, for behind those walls there are many amenities originally built as residence, hospital, schools, offices. This is the Park Presidio of San Francisco. The original Presidio was an area of about 3 square miles located between the city of San Francisco and the Pacific Ocean that functioned as an Army post from 1776 until 1994. First, it was under the control of the Spanish, followed by Mexicans, and then by the Americans (Benton-Short, 1998). In 1994 the Golden Gate National Recreational Area (GGNRA) assimilated the Presidio as part of its control. Today, the park is considered the largest urban national park in the world, with 3.5 million visitors each year ( Foundsf). The history of the Presidio tells us about the social transformation in American culture regarding classes, race, gender (www.presidio.gov). Also, the history tells us about the original ecosystem of

For my first of two field experiences I chose to visit the San Diego History Center located at Balboa Park down in San Diego. There were numerous different exhibits that were on display at the time all relating to the some aspect of the history of San Diego. Most of the exhibits had to do with the roles that different ethnic groups played in the history of San Diego. Some of the groups represented included African Americans, Japanese, and Jewish people. There was another exhibit called “Lore Behind the Roar” which gave detailed information and history regarding the San Diego Zoo. There were also displace of menus from the San Diego Area that dated back to WWII and before.

In the passage, "Lava Beds National Monument," the author wrote, "They can also take guided tours of the park, hike along scenic trails,climb cinder cones, and learn about the natural volcanoes and high desert in northern California." The students can go on a guided tour, so that no kid gets hurt or lost. Hiking is good exercise for us kids. Some kids don get the exercise they need,s o this will be the perfect chance for the kids. Climbing seems fun right? Well, guess what they have that to. They also have underground lava tubes that the kids can explore. In the passage, "Lava Beds National Monument," the passage states "Tourists can explore underground lava tubes that look almost like rocky water slides." Us 8th graders will have a lot of fun doing this activities. What makes it even better is that it is on the border of Oregon and California. just imagine being in two states at one time! I have always found that pretty

Tourists are often attracted to the state of California for the interesting sights, both in the big cities and in nature. However, resting near the California and Oregon state border, is a lonely road that leads to what some consider the state of California's "best kept secret." Lava Beds National monument is a beautiful park in the state of California. This gorgeous sight would be a great place for my fellow classmates and I to learn and educate ourselves on a few things in the park.

Although there is a great deal of history in the park, Cades Cove has a lot of things to offer its visitors. There is so much to do as far as recreation is concerned. A number of people enjoy fishing, hiking, horseback riding, backpacking, camping, sightseeing, and taking nature walks. Cades Cove offers many trails for people who enjoy hiking. Most of these trails lead you to the cabins if you choose to walk instead of drive. My favorite trail is the one up to Look Rock. Here you can look out over all the mountains and the city. If you like photography, then it is a good idea to bring your camera along with an extra role of film so you can take pictures of all the wildlife. I, for example, have a picture of myself standing next to a deer.

Rolling hills, worn down shacks with baron farmland, signs saying “conserve your water, California.” As the grateful dead is jamming in the background, four of my best friends and I approach the Bay Area. I had always wanted to visit San Francisco, for the history and the culture, however, our stop here was for a mission. We were looking for Psilocybin Mushrooms so that we could trip while camping in the Redwood Forest.

I grew up living on the coast of the Pacific Ocean between San Francisco and Half Moon Bay. I was walking distance to Lindamar Beach and a Bart train ride to Union Square in San Francisco. Going to Chinatown with all of my cousins and my uncles was one of my favorite activities growing up. Running down the street, looking for Golden Gate Fortune Cookie Factory, then later getting a bunch of Fun Snaps, miniature novelty fireworks that make a loud noise when thrown on the pavement. A few years later, my family and I relocated to the East Bay, specifically Antioch. With my Grandma, Aunt, and cousins close by, we would constantly plan family trips to explore. For example, my family would go hiking at Muir Beach or camping at Lake Berryessa in the

Students need to experience new journeys while they're young. The perfect way to ensure that kids live life to the fullest is going on a field trip. In California, there is a place full of beauty, history, and science. This wonderful place is called Lava Beds National Monument. Lava Beds National Monument is the perfect place to go for a field trip. It is full of beauty, education, and it is very convenient. Why would you not want to bring your students here?

I am proposing to conduct my self-guided field trip at the San Francisco Bay Model Visitor Center in Sausalito. The Bay Model is a 1.5 acre, indoor, three-dimensional hydraulic tidal simulation model covering the entire San Francisco Bay Estuary including the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers Delta. The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) created the model in 1957 to study estuary circulation and flow, geometry, and the impact of anthropology. USACE was able to survey potential anthropogenic hazards and the way they would change the landscape of the estuary on an accelerated timeframe. While USACE ceased its research efforts using the model in 2000, the model is still open to the public for educational purposes. The model features numerous points of interest for visitors including a 12-minute introductory video, the “Mountains to the Sea” and “Marinship” exhibits, the story of Corps of Engineers at Work, and a bookstore.

During the summer, my family and I had gone on a lot of walks. We usually went on Saturdays and spent at least an hour trail walking. Doing this was fun and relaxing for me, especially in the morning, when everything was so peaceful and calm. This fun summer activity also connects with science.

It was perhaps eight years ago that I initiated my first trek on a small hill, back then the whole concept of trekking bewildered me, living afar from the clutches of your over protective parents and surviving on your own in mountains was a dream come true for an eleven year old so I instantly signed up for my school’s annual trek. Little did I know that it was simply much more than that.

As, my trip went on I discovered many amazing things about Death Valley and some of its
