The Jump


My family and I were in the mountains on a hiking trail. It was a sunny day, but we were shaded by the trees. This was one of our favorite hikes, and we were full of energy. We had just reached the top of the tree line, we were hiking to a lake. We could see the lake in the distance.

When we got to the lake a found some rocks we could sit on, so we could relax and eat lunch. The lake was beautiful. The water was a little choppy, but we it wasn’t cold. I turn around to see where my sister was, and I noticed here climbing a rock. I join her. When I got to the top I saw her eating lunch.

We could see our parents, and the whole lake. The view was amazing. I look down off the rock and thought that it was about seven or eight feet off the ground. I stand up and ask my sister to film what I was about to do.

My sister gives me a thumbs up. I jump. I was soaring through the air for what seemed like forever, the wind was maneuvering around me like I was an airfoil. I had jumped up before going down so I dropped about ten feet. I hit the ground, and I landed it. My whole family saw and so did some strangers. I was so happy I landed it and my sister got the whole thing on video.
