Danger Begets Teamwork My team- KaCee, Liberty, Angeleea, Jessey, Chanler, Regan, and I- were going on an expedition through the Brownstown gym Jungle. This Jungle is an interesting place; it had various terrain and elevation. We knew while we were going to explore that a river blocks our way, and we no choice but to cross to reach our destination. If it was a normal river, we could have walked across it, but the river was a hard surface filled with alligators. All we had was six logs to get across.
