This photo is one of my favourites from my experience at camp. Part of my qualifying journey was to hike 7km across the beach, though at the end of the hike, we discovered that we had walked 8km as one of the roads had been closed, and our teachers had kept it a secret from us until the very end of the hike. I'm still very grateful for this hike, as tiring as it was, as the scenery was so beautiful, and the hike provided us with time to catch up and talk to each other. We also played several games along the way, such as I-spy, to pass the time as we walked, and also had our cameras ready for any photo-worthy moments. As we were walking, there were many opportunities to take photos of ourselves but also the natural scenery around us, and this photo depicts one of my friends hiking in front of me while gazing at her surroundings.
