“Slow is smooth, smooth is fast” we kept repeating over and over. It had been a great day! It started off relaxing, gazing at the beautiful sunrise during our breakfast. We had reviewed how to travel cross country many times. It was our first time hiking off trail and we made sure to avoid every negative thought. We sang on our way to our destination and used all the teamwork skills we had learned throughout the course. We then began to ascended needle peak. The ground under us would slide and cause us to fall. Instead of complaining we laughed and helped each other up. It was a tall and steep peak, the thought of giving up crossed my mind but my partner’s face kept me going. It wasn’t long until BAM! We hit the peak and it had felt as if a hard breeze of beauty hit me. On July 18, 2013 we demonstrated how to work as a true inspiring team. We invited all the challenges to prove to everyone that we are a team that sticks together. Uniquely Undefined.
