I think people area a little intimidated by it sometimes... It's basically hiking -- you're not cold like people think you'd be. You actually get quite warm because you're exerting energy.
You can get snow blindness if you're not careful.
They felt like losing the school was losing the community really.
Going around the city, seeing the signs, with John Tyler and things like that, it showed us the entire city just came right in there.
Sometimes there are people there without clothes on. They think since they are in a natural environment, they can go natural.
Hiking back wet will probably not be a good idea.
The best thing is the surroundings. You're in the middle of the forest and you have a river flowing next to the hot springs.
When they went to the state, and came back as a state champion, then we were all sisters and brothers there really.
The most enjoyable thing for me is having the feeling of being in pure nature where you're there and usually alone. It's like you're the first one to ever be there. Everything is perfectly pristine and very quiet -- snow dampens all the sound.
In winter, places look very different, and it gives a feeling of exploration. It rejuvenates you for the coming week.
