100 word holiday story

The dense forests cover you, leaving you feeling claustrophobic. At the same time, the sheer magnitude of the landscape feels isolated. Literally vertical mountains stand before you, waiting for the young men, carrying packs the size of a 9 year old boy, to conquer them. As you climb the mountains you feel like no one has ever climbed this mountain, it is yours to grab.  Raging rivers are there for you to cross, pulling your group further away from the other side of the river. At night silence and darkness reign, and sitting by the camp fire is in order.
