    For the field report I chose to visit Sabino Canyon, and explore the wilderness and my inner adventure. This location is all about getting to experience nature. In fact, some ago I went hiking and as I recall, Sabino Canyon portrayed an amazing view and the smell was nearly breath taking. It was an unforgettable hike and the incredible view is a plus. This experience not only I remember the first time I went, it was all about hiking and to getting good morning exercise, but this time it was all about the beauty of mother nature and all its flora and fauna. What I expect to experience is to be able to get a good and close look to everything that this wonderful set of mountains has to offer.…

    Camping and being in the outdoors has been a significant part of my life for the last eight years. As a child, I never enjoyed it much. Three years ago, my family along with four other families decided to take a trip to Glacier National Park. The sky-piercing mountains and the beautiful lakes urged me to explore the outdoors more. From hiking through the mountainous trails to driving up the mountains through the Going-to-the-Sun road, I finally began to realize the relief and soothing sense that nature had to offer. Despite the love I finally found in the outdoors, I was never the dedicated and…

    The decrease in August registration is a competitive disadvantage for Camp Wahanowin. The effective way to solve the problem is segment the Camp Wahanowin which based on age and geography. Children from ten to sixteen years old are likely to be regarded as the primary market, because they are more energetic and capable to handle challenging and exciting recreation activities than the secondary market - children who less than ten years old. Since they are too young to deal with those technical entertainment activities and must be monitored by activity instructors. Similarly, Children who live in GTA will be primarily served while overseas campers will be regarded as secondary market because it is faster to spread the reputation within a small area.

    People who climb the Everest these days can hardly be called “mountaineers”. For Graham Hoyland, the author of “The Last Hours on Everest”, “It isn't a wilderness experience—it’s a McDonald’s experience,” (Nepal’s Earthquake And Why Mount Everest Should be Closed—Permanently). The climbers are often not experienced enough to be on that mountain in the first place; risking not only their own lives, but also the lives of their expedition members and the sherpas.…

    St. John Narrative

    To the average person it was just another day in St. John’s, Newfoundland, however, to me it was much more. It marked the day I would run across Canada, from the Atlantic to the Pacific- from St. John’s to Victoria. As I stood upon a small inlet by the coast of St. John’s, I prepared myself for a journey of a lifetime. I tried to kick my feet into the bare sedimentary rock by the jagged coastline- bad idea, and I’d be needing those feet for a while. After hours of preparation, I was finally ready to go, but my hands were trembling. As if I wasn’t controlling them my feet began moving, and I soon found myself at a light jogging pace. Years of training had prepared me for this.…

    Steinbeck finally shows how socially incapable Crooks is when he describes him as merely the “backup”. Since Slim is in the bunkhouse discussing with George and Lennie, he is not available to play the beloved game of horseshoes. Due to this, Crooks is the only one to take his place. The readers are then shown the discomfort Carlson has with him playing, he exclaims in frustration “Jesus, how that nigger can toss shoes” (44). With the anger in Carlson’s voice, and the fact that Slim is not playing, the conclusion can be drawn that Crooks only plays with needed or convenient for others. Steinbeck shows that Crooks is socially isolated not because of how good he is, which is shown in the quote, but only because of his skin tone being different.…
