​A WALK IN THE FOREST

As I walk in the forest my mind is free 
I can smell fresh air and scented pines.
My eye catches the wonderful beauty
  of sunlight dancing they the trees
  and the bright flowers of unknown colors.
As I listen, see, and smell,
I can see little animals in the trees
  and birds perched on tree limbs
  looking awkwardly down at me.
Everuthing in the forest has its own way
  of being enjoyable.

Anita Jakob, age 11

and don’t forget the sounds of music...
or laughter to warm the heart...

If there's no snow (or rain) falling from the sky and you’re not in a cloud, then the temperature decreases by about 5.4°F for every 1,000 feet up you go in elevation.


However, if you’re in a cloud, or it is snowing/raining, the temperature decreases by about 3.3°F for every 1,000 feet up you go in elevation.
Thus meaning it’s a change of 6°C per 1,000 meters.











A vigorous five-mile walk will do more good
for an unhealthy but otherwise healthy adult
