Q!! Remember that storm. That scared the crap out of me! lt was exciting that's for sure. Remember the day we spent swimming in Oriana Lake? That was fantastic! Yea, that was my favorite day. I-low many people talk of scaling a mountain or canoeing a wilderness? Now tell me how many people actually do it! And yet, for the 43 students who went to Quetico Provincial Park and Colorado's Indian Peak THE beauty of the wilderness and wild flowers enhanced the awesome- ness of The Great Outdoors. , , i eeing the sight PORTAGES weren 't rest breaksg they were the most strenuous work done in the entire day. REFLECTION happened on the trip as well as after. Canoeing on a lake of glass allowed one to let his mind clear for a while. Wilderness their dreams became reality. Over the days the students paddled over fifty miles on six different lakes and climbed to the summit of Long's Peak, the 15th highest in North America. The most unusual thing that happened during the Canadian venture was that the group recieved a ticket and S25 fine for having too many people on a campsite. The maximum number allowed for one camp- site was nine the Homestead group consisted of 24! Many side trips of interest were taken including a rodeo, visiting the University of Wiscon- sin's Arboretum and riding gliders in Colorado Springs. Good things must always end and much too soon the students had to face the last days of their excursion. Whether they canoed in Canada or backpacked in Col- orado each group would agree the end brought floods of mem- ories that will never leave. Even- though the students' days in the wilderenesses had come to a close and within two days theu close and within two days they would be scattered and no long- er a group, they all would share the memory of the challenge of a wilderness forever. .nn av. , I 1' 14-FEATURES!
