Well we did another training hike, on a beautiful Mountain called Baten Powel. It was only eight miles (better than the usual 13), but the first Four miles were up the side of the mountain. It was a good workout and we all had a good time. When we had about a mile left til we reached to the top we discovered the trail was covered in snow, ,so we had to blaze our own trail and literally trek through the snow. Going up it proved to be a challenge but coming down I sat on my jacket and slide down. That was the best part! Overall the hike was the most challenging I have ever done, but I felt great after and was proud of myself for getting through it(with some encouragement with Doug of course).
