Me and dad went on an adventure just like last year and to the same place to, we started out very early in the morning I got dressed and we set off we came back to the cabin to get my jawbreakers so we could have a snack. Then we set off again we went straight through West Yellowstone and into the park on the way we saw a bald eagle and an elk. We went to Shoshone point, the only place in the park you can see the lake from the road. it was just a very small portion of the lake, that didn’t do it justice. We then went to grant village to get our backcountry permit. We were canoeing so we got our canoe permit. Then the ranger that we talked to said that he had caught massive fish out of Lewis lake, the lake that we had to canoe across. Then we went to Lewis lake got our stuff loaded in the canoe, we met the camp ground host and he had told us that the same ranger we talked to had caught 150 lake trout out of Yellowstone lake. Then we headed out across the lake the waves didn’t get very big until we got to the end of the lake and were getting closer to the channel that connected Lewis lake and Shoshone lake we almost didn’t make it but then we did. We saw tons of bald eagles then the river got too hard for us to paddle so we dragged the boat up stream.
When we saw Shoshone Lake we were so happy. We were almost to the narrows were we would cross when my dad got a bite it was a brown we let it go cause we thought it was a rainbow we got another bite it to was a brown and it Stoll our lewer so we kept on paddling. When we got to the narrows we tried to cross then dad got another bite it was mine to real in so I reald it in and it was a great big lake trout we kept it for the nest day’s breakfast and got to the middle and the wind caught us so we headed back to shore right as we got there it started to rain, hard then the rain turned to hail and all me and dad were standing under were a few pine trees. There was lightning everywhere, when the storm let up a bit we canoed across the narrows and got to a camp site were we set up camp for a few hours the storm lasted 3 hours non stop downpour. We could see blue skies in the horizon so we packed up again and headed for our real campsite. We were glad we didn’t try to get there before the blue sky because it took a long time to get there. When we did reach our campsite we unpacked explored and ant dinner. We had steakes for dinner that night, it was delicious. Then we went to bed we slept for a long time then I woke up, dad had fish all ready for breakfast. I ate my share and we went out fishing we caught 7 lake trout and1 brown it was fun then we went to the geyser basin we stopped at the ranger cabin it was cool we paddled over to the geyser basin, saw some geysers and headed back .
We swam in the lake and went for a hike we went to the other side of the lake we cane back had spaghetti for dinner and went to bed the net day me ant dad wanted to get an early start so me and dad woke up at 3:30 in the morning the lake was still so we packed up and had breakfast we had huckleberry pancakes we had found the huckleberries on a hill it was absolutely loaded with them. After breakfast we headed out it was very cold but we didn’t mind. we fished on the way we got a bite and I reeled in a brown we kept it for dinner at the cabin and kept on going we stopped at the ranger cabin at the mouth of the river then went down the river, it was lots faster and rocker. I had to stand in the boat and tell dad witch way to go so we didn’t get stuck. On the way down dad got a bite. He reald it in, it was a brook trout we kept it and headed on we got to Lewis lake and it was glass we paddled across it I caught another brown trout. right as we were in the middle of crossing the lake it started to hail we were glad that we started out that early. We got to the truck loaded up and got in with the heat cranked up we were tired but happy we had hiked and canoed 40 miles in 3 days and caught no les than 14 fish.
