What Did We Think of Montana?
Posted by 
Today we are all flying to our homes across the country. As we travel, we would like to share some thoughts about our experiences in Montana.
Amelia: Montana is great. But this is all I can say: Go to it!
Arabella: If it was up to me, I would stay right up until school started. I liked the water rafting the best!
Ben: It was really fun meeting everybody, and it was just amazing seeing everything and being with people that love exploring as much as I do.
Caitlin: Going on this Montana expedition was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. My favorite part of the expedition was discovering dinosaur bones and seeing mountain goats.
Dillian: It was so beautiful words can’t describe it.
Edward: It was so awesome to come here and see the animals that I could not see where I live.
Ellie: Montana could very well be the most beautiful place on Earth. From the exotic wildlife to the dramatic landscapes, it gives me a good reason to see America first.
Emily: Throughout this trip, I’ve experienced many things, and I’ve come to the conclusion that I never want to leave.
Hannah: The trip was really amazing. We all got along so well because we all enjoyed every aspect of the trip.
Jackson: I really liked learning about the different edible plants that you can find in the wilderness.
Jordan: It was amazing. I learned so much about wildlife and different things I thought I would never learn about.
Lena: It was awesome! My favorite part was seeing the two different kinds of bears. I will miss everyone, but I’m looking forward to the D.C. reunion!
Katherine: Majestic mountains and powerful rivers made this a trip of a lifetime. I’ve loved every minute of it! Thanks, NG Kids!
Mariah: I’m gonna miss everybody!
Michael:The trip was amazing. It was the journey of a lifetime.
Thanks to everyone who is following our adventure! We love seeing your comments.
Edward:
During the boat ride St. Mary’s Lake I learned a lot about Glacier National Park. Some of these things include that St. Mary’s lake is the 2nd biggest lake in Glacier National Park. Another is that there are 25 glaciers remaining Glacier NP. The boat was surrounded by tall mountains and the water was a really dark shade of blue.
All of a sudden, as we were cruising along, someone yelled “BEAR!” I dropped my notebook and rushed over. It was a male grizzly bear (called a boar) climbing down a funnel of big rocks toward the water. Then the captain slowed the boat while we all took pictures and looked through binoculars. Now everyone was on that side of the boat and it tilted. There was a lot of excitement. The grizzly looked so strong and his claws and teeth were enormous–it was simply amazing!!!
Those were the highlights of the boat ride.
Welcome to Montana!
We’ve arrived in Great Falls, Montana! Fourteen of us want to share our first impressions of our trip. Dillian is on a late flight, so he will join us later tonight.
