Why I signed up my friends for an extreme canyoning experience is beyond me, or as our Austrian tour guide eloquently put it, “crazy Americans”. The group consisted of a group of close friends, some that I have known for over twenty years. That day we tested our friendship to its physical limit. We had planned for this European backpacking trip for months in advance and I suggested canyoning the

Mt. Everest, standing 8,850 meters above sea level is taller than any other mountain in the world. Since 1922, hundreds of climbers have attempted to climb this treacherous mountain located in the Himalayan Ridge, whose summit ridge separates Nepal and Tibet. By 1996, the number of successful ascents totaled 846, with more than half occurring between 1992 – 1996. Sadly, this achievement did not come without loss of life, as 148 have perished while trying to complete this achievement. In 1996

including Nicolosi and Catania. Leonardo Mercatanti, in his article “Etna and the Perception of Volcanic Risk,” reviews a survey conducted in late 2011 and early 2012 in order to come to a conclusion on the local’s relationship with the volcano. Mount Etna is one of the world’s largest volcanoes, towering at 3340 meters above sea level and spanning an area of about 210 kilometers. (Mercantanti, 2013) Its most destructive eruption occurred in 1669 and it still erupts and spews smoke to this day.

"The entrance to Grand Line, is a mountain," Nami explained with her hand on a map depicting Grand Line. She was the only one who put on a rain coat to prepare for the weather. We were all sitting in the kitchen, sheltering ourselves from the storm. "A mountain!?" Usopp questioned. "Exactly. I had a hard time believing it myself when I looked at the map, but look! The Light of Guidance was directly pointing at reverse mountain located right here on on Red Line," Nami gestured towards the map.

The Rock Cycle The rock cycle is a very important cycle of our lives, we can change our form from any three ways. There are three types of rocks we can change into, metamorphic, igneous, and sedimentary. Changing our form isn’t the easiest thing in the world. We must change by either melting, erosion and compression, or heat and pressure. When I was born I started off as a little igneous rock. Before I was a rock, I was magma drifting up through the rift of a large volcano. When I finally reached

Pangea was a supercontinent that consisted of seven continents, it existed until the Triassic period where the continents started to drift 200-225 millions years ago. The theory was thought of by Abraham Ortelius. Evidently, three centuries later in 1912 by German scientist Alfred Lothar Wegener had a theory about how South America and Africa could fit together. Following in Wegener’s footsteps, Alexander Du Toit, a professor of geology, and his supporters theorized that Pangea first split into two
