This is Granduer Peak! It's a 2500 foot elevation climb in about 3 miles. The participants have not been tested by us in this type of hike, but they were definitely prepared. There was definitely some huffing and puffing and "are we there yet" comments, but they endured and reached the top. Here are some photos:
It was a beautiful hike and very rewarding by getting to the top!
We would like to put Emily in the spot light for a moment...over the past 3 weeks the participants were given points on their participation. Emily won the most points and achieved a gift certificate to REI...congratulations Emily!
We missed Sophia today. She had a rough night last night due to sickness, but we appreciated her bright smile and good humor during this program!
ON BEHALF OF THE ECHO 8 CREW WE WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE PARTICIPANTS FOR THEIR ENTHUSIASM & PARTICIPATION DURING THIS PROGRAM. WE'VE REALLY ENJOYED WORKING WITH THEM AND HOPE THEY WILL CONTINUE TO JOIN FUTURE PROGRAMS.
WE WOULD ALSO LIKE TO GIVE A SPECIAL THANKS TO THE PARENTS. THEY HAVE BEEN VERY SUPPORTIVE OF THE PROGRAM AND WE COULDN'T EXPRESS OUR APPRECIATION ENOUGH!
