This Expedition we went to the Rocky Mountains in Colorado for two weeks. We went out in the backcountry for five days and we got to go sliding down on sand dunes and we got to use cardboard to slide down the sand. It was hard to walk up the sand dunes because the sand was falling down all the time when you were walking up it. I got to dig a big hole in the sand and it was super cool to build a hole in the sand. One of the days we went to the visitor center to learn about the area that we were staying in. We got to go flying into Denver Colorado Airport and we got snacks and drinks on the plane and I got some coffee. It was so good to have coffee the first time in my life. One of the nights we had dinner at this campsite that we were staying at. One of the days we did some homework and we went rock climbing and after we were done with the rock climbing we drove to Sand Dunes National park. One of the days when we were packing up the van we went to a pizza for lunch one day on the expedition. When we were in Colorado we had some good days of weather and some bad days too. Tim almost ran off with the gas pump in the gas tank of the black van it was so funny to see. I very had a good time on this expedition because we were going to the Rocky Mountains. Evan and I were sleeping in tents for two weeks out on expedition in Colorado because it was sweet to sleep in tents in the backcountry again. The last day on expedition we were staying in a crappy campground. We had to get woken up very early to get to the Denver Colorado Air Port to fly back to base. I had a great time in Colorado in the Rocky Mountains with my new team on this expedition.
