Caving

n July 6th 2008 Bruce and I (Trevor) decided to go on our yearly caving trip that is when Bruce and I look for a cave that interests us and we go and explore it. Since it is the beginning of summer for us (we live in Canada), we wanted to twist things up and look for an unexplored cave so we could be the first to ever explore it and unveil the treasures it may hold. There was a bit of excitement for this trip because this would be our first time going in a cave that no-one has ever been in. The cave

Mammoth Cave is a national park located in west-central Kentucky. It became an official national park in 1926. There is no official founder of the cave, it is instead the product of many people’s whose individual explorations and discoveries came together to form one of the most historical and unique national parks this country has. This park celebrates Black History Month to recognize the majority of these important historical figures who were in fact African American Slaves. These slaves were an

I'm going to be writing about if people do extreme sports for the ¨adrenaline rush¨ or because they find it ¨relaxing¨. I personally think people do it for the adrenaline and I'll explain why I think that. I'm going to be analytical about this too. Reasons as to why that is. Most, if not all, of the articles we read help conclude my decision. I'll be using evidence from the articles we read about extreme sports to follow my conclusion on what I think is the real reason people do extreme sports. Well

At the start of my journalistic investigation I stumbled upon a 2010 documentary by the explorer Wes Skiles titled Water’s Journey. The short film is available online free of charge and follows a scientific team of four as they traverse the Florida aquifer in real time. The goal of their mission was to explore and extensively map the inside of the Florida Aquifer for the first time. The four individuals on this groundbreaking mission included Tom Morris, a cave explorer and biologist, Jill Heinerth

When speaking your feeling does not express the truth within you, written words maybe the only solution. Depression is not always easy to put into words; however, Anne Sexton uses poetry to express her emotions. After the birth of her second child Sexton suffered a mental break down. In “Her Kind” Sexton describes how she feels isolated from the world. She refers to herself as a possessed witch whose warm caves lay in the woods. Sexton uses analogy to express her house as the warm cave in the woods

A wise person once said, “The proper function of man is to live, not exist. I shall not waste my days trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.” This quote explains that we should not waste our time and actually do something worth living for. That we should use the time we have to do or become something, instead of wasting it. We should use this in our life just like how extreme sports athletes did. The only difference is that their path is riskier than ours because they do many dangerous activities

Rising Star, a cave system found in South Africa, is said to be the home of a new species of human. When scientists first heard the news that a discovery had been made, they reacted with awe and exasperation. Never before had there been a discovery of this monstrosity; more than a thousand bones had been discovered inside of Rising Star. Further research into the cave system has revealed that there is a possibility that Rising Star was a cemetery of sorts, which would support that the fossils belonged
