Jet Ski

I have always wanted to go on a zipline. I break out into a sweat as I headed up the steep mountainous terrain. One foot at a time I reached for the unstable scattered pegs on the tree cautiously. As the fear of falling came to mind I stopped and thought to myself...I can do this. I have this fear of heights. Ever since I was little I have always had this fear. At the environmental field trip (EFT) in Trinity Pines the zipline was around 200 feet from the ground and overlooked a valley of fallen

One day Bill and Bob decided to go on a snowmobile trip in Colorado. They had been on tons of snowmobiling trips, but never to colorado. Both Bill and Bob were really good snowmobilers. They had raced and climbed many mountains together. It was the middle of winter and there had been a lot of snow. So Bill and Bob looked up a mountain to snowmobile on. Since they were so good they were looking for a challenge. They found a mountain called Vail Pass. They buy the plane tickets to Colorado

Exercise Your Throttle Thumb: Snowmobile in Idaho’s Backcountry Having grown up in Idaho, I look forward to the first snowfall of winter like a kid looks forward to Christmas morning. I love winter, and just can’t get enough of it. From skiing and finding hot springs hidden in the mountains to snowmobiling through unending valleys of fresh powder, winters in the Gem State are always adventure-packed. Instead of hiding indoors until spring like many people do, us Idahoans see snowfall, throw on our

drag myself downstairs and feel my body function return as the sleepiness withdraws. I start my day off by logging on to the computer and seeing what’s new on youtube. Then my dad comes into the room I was in and said “Hey bud, we will be going to the ski park today”. I feel a shock as I remember dad saying something about it yesterday. I have mixed feelings about skiing, but I haven’t tried it in a gargantuan amount of time, I could barely remember the last

Q is for Question: How did I get Here? We should all be familiar with that feeling you get right after you do something that you know was going to either get you hurt, or in trouble. I find I normally find myself asking the question “How did I get here?” very frequently when I’m with my best friend, Tarren. It was the middle of winter. We had had a big snow in the few days prior to one of my biggest “How did I get here?” moments. I think we were in third grade at the time. After school, Tarren’s

to later success. My people will tell stories on how they failed at something and then were able to improve from that. Well here's my story. On February 27, 2014 , a bunch of my friends and I got together and went to Snow Ridge for my birthday to ski and snowboard. It was a Friday, so we all went up after school and we ate dinner and then started riding and skiing. As the sun goes down and the lights on the slope begin to warm up, we all start playing follow the leader. That's where the person that

little brother Bruno was going to ski with his older siblings, me and my 12 year old brother, but the problem was that at the end of the first week we were all going heli skiing. If everything went well we would get new phones next week. So we had 5 days to teach Bruno how to ski through powder, in between trees and in general not be scared. We started easy on blue trails and started getting harder every day. The first day he was still trying to remember how to ski. By the last he was going with us

part of the ride up there is all the scenery I love admiring the godly mountains. The worst part of the ride up there is when my sister asks me a million questions.There is a marker the tells me we are almost to my cousins house it is an rusty old red ski lift cart from there I know we are ten minutes away give or take a few. Spending time with my family is another

Go on an idyllic and blissful adventure with a bike When somebody informs you that there’s a striking, dreamy trail worth visiting on a mountain bike, one you've never even heard of and you've never been to, you could be doubting. It will be more ambiguous if the trail is located in another nation and the local people there haven't heard of it or been at that trail. Looking at the map you can view it's totally out of the way and might take a full day out of your travel plans - is it actually worth

Mountain climbers can get into trouble, but when they do, should other people help them? Many people enjoy to climb mountains, especially Mt. Everest. Many people have succeeded scaling the mountain, around 4,000 people. But not everyone is fortunate enough to make it up and back down. Some people get saved, but others are not lucky. So if many people have died or almost died, and many people still climb the mountain and are aware of the risks, should they have the right to rescue services? People
