Pikes Peak Have you ever looked off a tall cliff? Now Imagine going 30 mile per hour on a bike with curvy roads with huge cliffs on your side with no rails. I left with my family from our hotel in Manitou springs, Colorado. From the hotel we drove to a bike tour place to take us up Pikes Peak. When we got the building we saw pictures of how big the cliffs were, but another thing scared me even more was the fact they had no side rails. When I saw that there were no side rails I was really excited

“They promote esprit de corps, exercise, fitness and team building. I participated with two other Joint Task Force members as the bike competitor.” Taking off from Ferry Landing, some struggling more than others, bikers battled the first of many hills. Those with road bikes have a greater advantage, as they switched gears allowing them to grab more traction as they pedaled with already straining legs. Coming to Sherman Avenue, they made a right heading toward the turnaround point at Cable

Mount Jeez overlooks the Malabar Farm and much of the Pleasant Valley. In its actuality it really is just a big hill. Mount Jeez lays in a great line, like a spine of land, providing a crystal clear view of the sky. The rumbling and roaring white wave surge down the mountain side, at some point the wrinkled mountain seems to be cocoon quite whenever a right of snow covered the sky punching the mountain. During the winter season, the snow festoons the mountain peak and embalmed with the tiaras of

I mentally started to freak out, and i looked for an exit route, there was only one other one besides going down the hill: this hill was connected to the smaller hill. I told my dad I'm going to go to the other hill. He gave me a stern look, and he went down the hill alone. I noticed i might crash if I sled down to the slope shortcut to the other hill, so I took off the base of my skis and left the boot attachments on my boots. One small step at a time, I slowly climbed down the shortcut

In the story “Hills Like White Elephants,” Ernest Hemmingway allows a superficial plot to symbolically display a conflict between choice of destination as a couple’s discussion between train rides. The layers of description and dialog manipulate a small moment of time and demonstrate that a human choice can range while perspective shifts the understood potential of the landscape. By crafting an intricate story that is filled with symbolism and overlapping complexities, Hemmingway provides a sophisticated

The dirt path led me downward into secluded valleys and over open hills. Two miles into this delightful experience, a small Adirondack named the Stan Murray shelter, stood as a resting point for weary hikers. The Adirondack, a three-sided shack like structure, blended into the surrounding brown of the trees and surprised

They were on their morning walk through the endless trails and old dirt paths that twisted and turned until you saw no end. The trails were covered with fresh snow stacked upon autumn’s forgotten leaves that were never bothered to be picked up. Walking into the woods, holding his gun with an old torn red flannel tee on, Jason has doubts that this might be his last season. Charlie was already climbing down the hillside, straying off the trails, and hoping of making the first kill to prove his worthiness

The school dismissal bell has just rung and I walk slowly towards the back of the building towards the athletic wing. As I walk towards the trophy case, I am walking by memory because i am distracted by my own thoughts floating through my head of all the things I need to do before the day ends. My ends go back to focus and I find myself with the rest of my cross country team. Today is Tuesday, and we have a meet. Tuesday is the longest day of my week. After going to school for seven hours, I have

comprehension. The use of characterization within the story “Hills Like White Elephants” aids the reader to further understand the persona of an individual. In return, this allows the reader to understand them on a deeper level with a powerful connection. Without characterization, it would be difficult for the individual reading to form a bond with the man and the girl because they wouldn’t truly understand what they’re going through.
