Pittsburgh MCG - Kristen - Day 4

Today we did Bunsen Peak.  It wasn’t as bad as I thought but close. It was mostly uphill but had a great view. It was a strenuous hike. We did a mile in about an hour so we were making good time even with our breaks. When we reached near the top it was getting steeper. We eventually made it to the top and all found a seat to sit at to rest. We then had lunch and there was a squirrel that kept coming over to try to get fed. The squirrel got really close (less than arm’s length). There were actually two squirrels we found out and one of them decided to take Keith’s Fig Newton bar. Sadly it couldn’t since it was too heavy for it to take. After are lunch and a talk we hiked back down the hill. When we reached the bus we were faster than the last group. After that we headed to Mammoth hot spring and it was cool. On our way back we stopped at a gift store. I ended up getting 3 book marks, a deck of cards, and something else. We are setting up for dinner now; we are having Bison chili so hopefully it will be good.  Tonight I have to write my thing for the presentation the next day and I have no clue what to write about.
