Physical Description

            At Cardigan we saw animals such as squirrels, chipmunks, birds, and turkey. There were a lot of trees at the base of Mt. Cardigan and up high there are very few trees. On the roads it was dirt and rocky and the trails are clean and well maintained. It is very forestry.

Cultural description

            At Cardigan there are people from all over the world but there weren't many people. There were only the 7th graders, the teachers, counselors and instructors. There were a few hikers but they didn't go into the lodge. We passed a few people on the trails only once in a while. The food was really good and it came from recipes from all over the world like spaghetti or burgers. We also had normal ham and turkey sandwiches for lunch. Finally, for breakfast we had eggs, bacon, corn bread, and hashbrowns.
