    About 43 years ago, spotted an advertisement in the paper for the YMCA wilderness program. 1. My first experience was a boat trip. I still have the images of sunrises and sunsets with all the beautiful colours on Lake of the Woods.

2. Even now I can feel the cold water dripping down my arm as we sat in the boat pulling the paddles awkwardly through running water. It was my first experience in a boat and my arms became tired after many hours of paddling.

We stopped for lunch in the boat by gathering all the boats together. 3.

At night it was time to camp at our site picked out by our guide. There we learned to start campfires and cook some of our meals. This is where fell in love with noodles. 4. We cleaned up our mess and put up our tents and slept on the ground. We learned to carry the heavy packs to our next destination. I developed a sense of accomplishment and had arm muscles after that trip.

There were no phones, makeup, hair dryers... just us and the bush. We came from different backgrounds with different personalities and we all had to work together as a group.

5.. I kept a journal from that second trip and often go back to it.

A. They dropped us off in the bush.

B. I had to experience more of the wilderness.

C. I was 15 and wanted to do something different.

D. Our guide handed out chocolate, cheese, and dried meat.

E. I liked the boat trip so much that I joined the survival trip the next year.

F. It was wonderful sharing simple meals over the fire and talking with new friends.

G. As a teenager, didn’t know that I was having the best adventure a teenager could have.
