6th Grade Yosemite Trip
October, 2000
My heart pounded with fear as we
climbed the steps.
My legs were cold, my arms were stiff, and my back ached.
I was astounded as we saw the waterfall. I wish I had a camera, but
I'm glad that I can look back and see the top of the waterfall.

Today I went to Vernal Falls. It's
really pretty.
It was really hard to climb, because it was a big hill,
there were a lot of steps, and it really hurt my legs.

Making it up to the top of Vernal
Falls wasn't very easy.
The rocks were tough to climb, but when we reached the top, I was
relieved. I looked out. It was one of the most beautiful things I
have ever seen. I could look at the view forever. I'm glad I reached
the top because I did something I thought was impossible. Yosemite is
something I will remember for the rest of my
life.

Today we are going to climb a
mountain.
In the morning it was freezing. When we started going up the mountain
we were getting very tired. After a long time we got to these rock
stairs. We were very tired, but we saw this beautiful waterfall that
we were trying to climb up to. After a long time we got up there and
forgot all about being tired. It was very beautiful.

Today was my first time on top of
a waterfall.
It was also the longest hike I've ever hiked.
I don't exactly know how many miles it was,
but that I know it was 300 feet up in the air.
I climbed about 300-350 stairs until I got to the top of the
waterfall. When I got to the top, it was so
scary.
