Adventure Stories for Kids of All Ages
On a warm Saturday, we began packing our supplies in preparation for our camping trip. The supposed destination was Bowman Lake, a large lake in the northwestern part of Glacier. Dad’s plan this summer was to go to new places and do new things. Camping in this far away place was very different. Anyway, we […]
E and I were snowshoeing through the deep snow near the Flathead River as the sun glistened brightly through the trees. Sparkling white snow set against the clear blue sky made for a beautiful day. We reached a clearing and stopped to look at the dark colored river and snowy mountains. To annoy my […]
After an overnight snowstorm, we decided to experience the deep snow in our neighborhood by walking to the store. After walking five blocks, I realized how difficult it was to walk in the snow. The fluffy white stuff seemed like weights on my legs. I began to feel tired and the store was […]
Avalanche Workshop Begins After much anticipation, we arrived at Whitefish Mountain Resort’s base lodge. We were early for our avalanche safety workshop, and explored the brand new lodge. When we went outside again, we saw a ranger standing around a bin of snowshoes. This must be our guide we thought. The K. family was there […]
This article is a lesson to all bears: Don’t go into town, or this might happen to you. Our studies were finished at last, so we decided to take a walk. Maybe there would be a little adventure outside of the boring life at home. As we started out on our walk we […]
One evening, I was browsing through the newspaper when I noticed an ad for a kid’s cooking contest. I tore out the ad and showed it to Mom. She said it was okay if I wanted to enter, but asked what recipe would I use? Although I do experiment with cooking, I had never […]
E had been hinting about renting canoes. She mentioned it again the day after our hike to Grinnell Glacier. Little did she know that Dad had planned to surprise us with an hour of canoeing on Swiftcurrent Lake. When we went to the dock to get in our canoes, I was very […]
On Father’s Day morning, we awoke unsure of what we would do for the holiday. Instead of bad weather like we had for Memorial Day 2 years ago when we went to Yellowstone, the weather was beautiful and hot, with temperatures around 75 degrees. As the day went on, the word spread that we would […]
We woke up on a damp Mother’s Day morning in early May, disappointed. The previous day, Dad had said that we would go to the annual Family Forestry Expo. But Mom and Dad watched a long movie that night, and thus went to bed very late. It was 8:30 A.M by the time they awakened, […]
Excitement came over us; we were going on vacation! We were going to Yellowstone National Park over the Memorial Day weekend. It was already Spring in Northwestern Montana. Tulips were blooming and the air was getting warm. We were disappointed to find out that Yellowstone was going to have some pretty unpleasant weather. Travel could […]
