It was a journey on the long bumpy silk road towards the path of Eagle Scout. In my experience involved many Hardships, many Experiences, many lessons learned. When a boy first entered Scouting he sat silently in the corner listening in meetings. He wasn't sure if you would really enjoy Scouting. He contemplated what it is whether to stay or whether to go And tell his first single Enormous step. This child little did he know Entered the harsh life of a winter camping. He eagerly volunteered

A recovery effort to get the bodies of two missing snowshoers from Boston will have to wait until Friday because of poor weather conditions and the high avalanche risk in Canada. Rescuers have found the pair's car and tracks that go into the avalanche area, which is about two hours north of Calgary. Three years ago, a Martha Vineyard’s man survived an avalanche on Mt. Washington and the news of the two missing snowshoers’ is reminding him of how lucky he was. “I just remember the whole horizon

It is early October, the final weekend of the mountain biking season at Northstar Ski Resort. I am waiting to load my bike onto the lift. There are long lines for everything, because the place is packed. Riders rocket down the mountain, sending cinnamon colored dust into the air. A breeze blows this across the hills. The trees are green, and the afternoon sun warms the ground. The time of day makes it a bit chilly. The metallic noise of bikes can be heard, but not always seen. The sound of both joy

Snowball Launcher Reflection 1. Explain the effects of changing the location of the fulcrum on the beam and explain the ideal location of the fulcrum for maximum distance. The effects of changing the location of the fulcrum will determine how beneficial each hole on the beam the is made. Different locations the better you can experiment with the different holes. For example if the fulcrum was to be to close too the lacch it would most likely hit the ceiling. Also, if the fulcrum was too be too far

dressed, and leaving. This was no normal day, however. This was the last day of the ski season, and it had snowed a foot in the mountains. I still remember the date, 4/15/13. You could say it was a very good season for the northwest. Stevens pass, which is a resort in Central Washington, had gotten over 5 feet of snow overnight one day in December 2012, which made for a record powder day there. Down by Mt. Hood, where I ski, the same storm that hit the Washington resorts pummelled those resorts. This made

proposed to do just that; make artificial snow on their ski resort. The proposal is for their own economical benefit with no respect for the holy San Francisco Peaks, where the Ski resort is located. The San Francisco Peaks are located in Northern Arizona, seven miles outside of Flagstaff. The weather on these peaks is not very consistent. Some winters there’s excess of snow for skiing, then there are years like the 2001- 2002 ski season where there were only four inches of snow the

many people... right?” I asked myself. Even the idea of taking a group of 19 people of varying ages and abilities on a ski trip was madness. But for me it was becoming reality (again!). We had tried this before in 2012 and a great time was had by all. I had particularly enjoyed that trip, as being an only child, I am usually on holiday alone with my parents, so to have the chance to ski with a group my age filled me with excitement and anticipation of fun times! I was ready for action. Initially, the

to snow ski, and I leaped at the thought of trying this new sport. On the first morning we entered the pro shop to rent all the gear and make decisions about whether or not to take lessons or go it alone. We decided to be adventurous and go it alone—no lessons. Kent and Celeste, the friends who invited us, knew how to ski and snowboard. He assured us that he could show us the basics, and we would be on our way down the slopes. All of us, after a few minutes learning how to wedge our skis started

Have you ever thought about symbolism in your life? Symbolism is important in our lives because if we recognize symbols and what they represent, it can help us to become a better person by letting us know what we need in our lives and how it helps us. I spent some time thinking about symbolism and here’s what I came up with. The first five symbols I would like to address represent the activities that I like to do often. My first symbol would be a shoe because I’m in cross-country and I like to
