You may have heard of Niagara Falls, one of the biggest waterfalls in the world. But do you know the long slope(斜坡) — the Niagara Escarpment? Earlier this month, our school went on a hiking trip to this beautiful place.
The weather was cold, cloudy and windy, so we wore many layers to stay warm. We were separated into two groups and went on different routes. The whole escarpment is 725 kilometers long.
My favorite part of the trip was the cave. The cave was formed from many different shaped rocks. We climbed down into the rocks with the help of our teachers. The rocks were steep and slippery(滑的) because they were covered with wet leaves. It was a fun and exciting experience for all of us.
After walking 5 km without any rest, we were hungry and tired. When our teacher finally said we could stop to have lunch, we were very excited. After all, this route was a little different from the ones we were used to. It was more rugged(崎岖的), with lots of rocks on the path, which made it harder to walk. But it was great exercise.
But remember to stay warm and have fun along the way!
