It was supposed to be a calm evening. Nightmare in Yosemite. [5]
Edited : Please respond! Il edit yours if you edit mineIt was supposed to be a calm evening. It was supposed to be a relaxing walk in the park. Little did I know, that night would become one of the scariest in my life. It was 10 pm. After 5 hours, my family and I had finally arrived. We had been looking forward to this trip for over a year, and could not believe the beauty of it. The vast park looked as if it was eager to be explored. We decided to stay at a local hotel and venture into the park the next day.
We decided to head into the park the next day. Upon the information we recieved at the visitor center, we ultimately decided to hike on a canyon trail. To be prepared for our journey, we brought along plenty of water and snacks. We geared up and were on our way. With a keen interest in the exotic species, I tried to identify various types of trees and animals. I noticed an unknown creature trotting away. "I'll catch up with you guys", I told my family. They continued on the path while I mindlessly followed the creature. It had a short tail and its coat was a shade of beige with spots on it, unlike anything I had seen before. After following it for a while, I was able to get a close-up view, and determined it to be a bobcat. When I realized it, it was too late - I had wandered off the trail.
Never been in this situation before, I was utterly confused. What do I do? Since there was no cell phone reception, I knew calling for help was out of the picture. I recalled that I had my compass on me, and that the trail was North. I followed the compass for about 10 minutes, when I realized I was in completely unfamiliar territory. I looked down and stopped. The compass was magnetically attracted to my belt. I had been going in the wrong direction the whole time. At this point, I realized I could not freak out and would have to be responsible and get back to the trail. I would have to abandon all fears and go in "survival mode" if I were to get to safety. "Help!!! Help!!!", I screamed, but the howling winds was the only response. Trying to backtrack my route, I only got deeper into the wilderness. Suddenly, I heard a snarling sound come from behind me. It was a feral animal which had large claws and a powerful, muscular body, indicating that it was not friendly. To make matters worse, the animal slowly started coming closer. I had no idea what to do, as I had always relied on my parents for help. Quivering, I tried to move back to get to higher ground, and hopefully sprint away. However, my plan backfired, as when I moved, the creature only snarled more viciously. Panicking, I quickly reached down and picked up some rocks, hoping to be able to defend myself. As the creature made no attempt to run away and was only advancing, I decided to throw the rocks. As accurately as I could, I aimed and tossed the rocks at the creature. Surprisingly, it decided to back off and flee as I struck it with rocks. A wave of relief rushed throughout my body. I felt accomplished since I did not need anyone to help me and was able to come up with a solution on my own. The fear and loneliness had forced me to become more confident and responsible, as I had nobody to rely on out there. fearthemaster Oct 27, 2014
