Charlie’s Ashokan Paragraph

At Ashokan I experienced many different sources of nature like the Gorge hike, the birds of prey event, and canoeing.

At Ashokan we went on a hike called the Gorge hike through the woods and experienced many types of nature along the way. We went on the blue trail and an Ashokan staff member came with us. On the Gorge hike we learned about different types of fungus, moss, and turned over rocks to see if there were any animals under them. We also learned about invasive species like Japanese Stiltgrass. An invasive species is a life form that was brought by people from other countries and takes over the land. On this hike I saw many different types of nature. I also experienced nature when I went canoeing.
