Personal Narrative: Grand Canyon

I was in the back seat of the car listening to my mother and father talk. My dad turned to me a couple minutes later and said "You know, Yellowstone became a national park in 1872, it was the first of the 58. You could find some cool stuff here in Wyoming." "Ok, but what if we see a black bear, or a grizzly bear, or a vicious animal?!" I exclaimed, being cautious as always. I usually wasn't this worried, but as soon as my parents said we were going to the beautiful and wonderful Yellowstone National Park I immediately thought of  being chased by rabid pack animals, not enjoying the fresh nature air. About 10 minutes later, we arrived at Yellowstone and parked near the recreation center where we rented a cabin. A woman gave us a set of keys, and we drove the cabin. The cabin wasn't very far from the recreation center, and it looked pretty nice on the inside. We set our luggage down in the living room of the cabin and sat down. As soon as I was able to get comfortable my dad said "It's only 5 p.m., we still have time to take a look around." I groaned in despair saying "Ok, fine." All of us head out the door and walked down a

    When I was around 6 or 7 years old, my family decided to go to Yosemite National Park over the summer. We went on Saturday and during the morning so we could get there early. After about 30 minutes on the road, we stopped at a resting area. We ate there for about 15 minutes and used the restroom. My dad told us that if we wanted to get there early, we had to go right then. My family and I were back on the road and arrived there in 2 hours. I slept the whole way so I couldn't watch the environment as we passed by. When we got there, we entered the park and ate. I was so excited that I ran ahead of my family. I could feel the cool breeze and smell the fresh tree like scent as I ran. My brother asked if we could split into groups and my dad agreed. We split into groups and we started our adventure. I was with my grandma and my sister. The other group was my dad, my mom, and my brother. We also decided to meet at the a certain point at sunset.

We finally made it to the top; I was so relieve of fear. Nevertheless, when I taught this adventure was over think again, it was the most pleasant scenery, I taught I die and gone to heaven. This scene is astonishing, just imaging standing on the highest mountain overseeing the river with the blues sky and the water color was a bluish to an emerald green with the sun light glistens in the river, a nice cool breeze is blowing, it a place I would recommend, it is a remarkable place to visit.

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.

The first time I every experience the Wildcat Hills was during a difficult time in my life. My parents were going through a custody battle over my siblings and me. They were also both in the process of being remarried. So, when my step father brought us to the Wildcats to explore for the first time I realized how amazing our earth can be. Here in the county known for the Scotts Bluff National Monument, sits over 1,000 acres of land. It wasn’t just the sight at the top of the escarpment that took my breath away. It was the fact that whether you were at the bottom of the hills or the top, when the wind blew that’s all you can hear. It isn’t overwhelming, it is

Compared to most days, it was pretty pleasant out. Porsha, my best friend, was over at my house for the day. Like most times when we hung out,  we needed something to do. There wasn't really much to do in Lake Havasu, Arizona. Both of us enjoy spending a lot of time outside, you can tell by our tan skin. Swimming was the best thing to do as it was so blazing hot here, but I did not have a pool.

I met so many people whom live in Los Angeles for a several years, but only few people have tried to hike Hollywood sign. I would recommend hike to Hollywood sign that would be better than Griffith park or Runyon Canyon because you could hike right behind the sign. We are always seeing Hollywood sign because we live in Los Angeles and from almost all of Hollywood movies, but some people never tried to see very close that sign. That would be very amazing, you can see everything from on the Hollywood. If you really love hike you can start from very down but I parked my car almost Observatory and then I started hike. I heard some people talking there is no way to right behind Hollywood sign something like that. That’s totally wrong but I saw some

I never thought I would rock climb blindfolded, yet last summer I climbed fifty feet of rock with a bandana over my eyes. This is not the first time I have done something so adventurous. I have always been determined, and this quality has led me to repeatedly push myself beyond my comfort zone. I have done out of the ordinary things from rock climbing to spelunking, things some people go their whole lives without doing. I have worked towards a single goal for years, hoping that my tenacity will lead to the attainment of that goal. My determination enables me to push myself to try new things, let my adventurous side shine, and labor long for something I desire.

We would prefer to seek out the Grand Canyon in the present. With signs, ropes, and trails, the Canyon now seems far more enjoyable...and safe. We hope the travels are safe and that we all watch our step as we step foot into one of the most beautiful sights of your

Army Lieutenant Joseph Christmas Ives was the first American to ever lay eyes on the Grand Canyon. He deemed it “altogether valueless”, and he believed that “ours has been the first and will undoubtedly be the last, party of whites to visit the locality. It seems intended by nature that the Colorado River along the greater portion of its lonely and majestic way, shall be forever unvisited and disturbed” (Powell, 3-4). Looking out at the vast beauty of the Grand Canyon, he was sure that it would never have any importance, and nobody would want to see it. Today, Grand Canyon National Park is one of the greatest and most well-known natural landmarks in all of the United States.

In Arizona there is a hugenormous feature known as the Grand Canyon. This feature is 277 miles long, 18 miles wide, and 6000 feet deep. How it was formed you may ask? Well, in this legend u will figure out how our historical site was created. It all started with two horses, Blue Wish and Luna.

It was my first ever experience of star gazing while rowing a small boat in a river. The feeling was obviously phenomenal. Finally, it was time for me to return to the shore, even though I did not really want to leave this amazing scenery behind. The overall beauty of the Colorado River (both in day and night) had, so to say, a moral aspect, all its own. Its variety, beauty, and grandeur filled my mind with a sense of my smallness, humbled my pride and, at least for that time being, carried me away to a better and nobler world of imagination where all the other issues of my life felt so trivial. Although I had a camera on me, I was so lost in the breathtaking beauty of the river that for a while, I even forgot to take any picture. I was just so busy in enjoying myself in the vastness of this

After the GPS jumping around, trying to find the cache's coordinates, we located the geocache in a crack in some boulders. I know there were pictographs and petroglyphs in the canyon so we continued hiking a bit to try and find them. We didn't go far before high up on the canyon wall I spotted a pictograph. While I knew there was more rock are further into the canyon but we were running low on time and I had another panel I've been looking for the past couple of years. The rest would have to wait for another trip.

We were in the middle of the desert, basically having no sense of direction whatsoever. Riding down the coastline of a twenty-mile island off the coast of Venezuela. Not knowing where to go was an issue but my brother, Ben, and I were on the ATV zooming through the desert seeing various attractions throughout the trip. Watching animals run everywhere, experiencing the views of little beaches with huge waves it was like a dream come true.
