What a day! During the grouse grind as I took the 10th step I felt my legs burning from tiredness, like they were about to be cut in half. But in the end I made it and was very proud of myself. Also to the others! What I saw that was interesting was when my dad came up at the top carrying a baby that I didn't know. I saw some new stairs that were built during my hike on grouse mountain. I talked about how the cashier in one of the restaurants on the top, payed me extra. Yes! Almost the weekend!

I thought the "lumber jack show" and the bears were interesting to watch. Same as 2barunner it was interesting that her dad was carring a baby, he was very helpful. I heard and saw people on the trail sweating and breathing very fast. This is what intereated me, when you hike it's better for you to drink alittle bit of water then drinking alot. The first time you go on the grouse grind it's a little bit hard but then the next time you go you're used to what it feels like so it's be easier. I heard people talking about beating their last time and asking others their time.

I thought the lumber jack show was interesting and cool to watch. In the show they carved a chair that was really small and would have fit me. Then they asked if anyone could fit in it and I raised my hand but sadly didn't get picked:( I talked with people about there times and that they did well. I cant wit until next year to go again:) Yea almost the weekend!

I thought that a lot of people were getting junk food at the top. I really enjoyed the scenery on the way up. Around half way I stopped to drink some water and I was just so silent and breath taken with how beautiful the scenery was. I heard everyone panting and coughing or drinking water. I did really enjoy it but next time I would DEFINITELY try to beat my time. I would try to not take as many breaks. But in the end I will be training before it a bit so I'm not worried. I think that next time I would also listen to my music. Maybe even walk alone because I found that when I was in a group they slowed me down. Some wanted to constantly take breaks but as a friend I had keep motivating them. I talked with my friends mostly about the grouse grind and what we were doing last time. Wether it's your time or how you felt we talked about our last experience. By the way, after doing the Grouse Grind..... I hate stairs. But now my legs feel great! Quote of the day: "Never give up!

I saw A LOT of tired and exhausted kids but I also saw a side of those kids that I never saw, a side that tried there best at everything they do no matter how tough, rough or enough of a hard job they had to do.

Well just about everything I was going to say was already mentioned, but I did see the beautiful mountain, friends being goofy and seeing a lot of tired people.

Because I wasn't there I am not exactly sure what to say, but from what I remember seeing the bears was very interesting and hearing the birds chirp was fun to listen to. So excited to do my bottle drive on the weekend :)!!!!!!
