Award Level:
Bronze
Favourite memory of the Award:
Camping under the stars with some of my best friends. Even though the Adventurous Journey was my biggest challenge, there was a silver lining. I was so lucky to have my best friends by my side on this journey because it wouldn't have been the same without them. The conversations we had and the fun that we had was incredible.

Biggest challenge from doing the Award:
The Adventurous Journey. I feel like I needed to prepare more. The terrain was challenging to tread on, as I was not used to the steep uphill and downhill.

Tell us the story behind your photo:
Before this photo was taken, our hike leader told u he had a surprise. So we got our lunch and we hiked down this steep hill. When we reached the bottom the saw this beautiful waterfall. We spent about 10 minutes just staring at it and another 10 minutes splashing about in the pool at the bottom and climbing rocks.
