A southbound adventure

       
http://www.pcta.org/our-work/pct-communicator-magazine/
       Fact -         "Park's creek pass which at 6,100 feet above sea level was completely covered in snow."

Intresting thing I read-
       One of the hikers had slipped in the snow and fell a large distance

       The PDF describes a dangerous but, fun hike. The hike I chose was called a southbound adventure told by the view of a woman. The PDF said that someone slipped in snow and fell off the trail. While on the hike they were chased by thunderstorms, cold, went through times when they were low on food. The hikers also recieved support from other hikers. From what I read, I believe the hikers enjoyed what they experinced while hiking.
Question-
What intrests hikers into doing these trails?

My writing

My writing was not very bad in my opinion. I was not used to writing  under a time limit as short as that one; so I had a couple spelling mistakes. I also had a commonly confused word;I had informal language  because I was  trying to get my thoughts out quickly.   So, I feel like speed is something i should try to better myself in so i can edit my paper before its due.
