Wilderness


I crashed in the Canadian Wilderness. The Canadian Wilderness is HUGE! The lake I crashed into was “L” shaped and pretty small. The way I crashed was when the pilot died and later the plane ran out of fuel and I decided before that I would land in a lake. I couldn’t find any lake when the plane ran out of fuel so I panicked. But then I saw one but it was very small but was my only choice. When I got out of the water I collapsed and that is the last thing I remember.

When I woke up I had to find food and shelter. For shelter I found a hole under a rock that I could almost stand up in. Then I started to walk around the lake and I found some berries. I ate and ate and ate until I felt sick and then I barfed. Then I decided to call them "gut cherries" because they hurt my stomach. Later I found raspberries. They were so sweet and perfectly ripe. While I was picking them a bear came up behind me. I didn’t know there was a bear there, but something just told me that something was wrong. Toward the end of my adventure in the wilderness, I was attacked by a moose. It was insane! It suddenly just ran up behind me and rammed me into the water head first. At the end I learned that if the moose’s hair stood up on the back of her neck she was getting ready to attack.

After the moose attacked me I went back to my shelter. There was a roaring wind. I suddenly knew that it was a tornado. The next morning I saw the tail of the plane sticking out of the water. In the end I got the survival pack out of the back of the pane. I was looking through the survival pack and I found an electronic device. There was an “on” and “off” switch. But when I turned it on nothing happened. So I put it aside. Shortly after that, they found me.
