Once on a summery weekend I was with my family. I asked my Mom, "Can we go up Smuggler?" "Of course we can." my Mom replied. When we went up it was so cool. I saw all kinds of dogs. I saw a puppy that was three months old. His name was Newman. It was his first time up Smuggler too. Near the top I saw my teacher, Mimi. I said, "Hi Mimi" she replied, "hi Sassy". When we got to the top of Smuggler the town looked liked it was for little ants crawling around. It was so amazing. When me and my Mom were going down I held onto my Mom's hand and slid while she pulled me down the ice & snow spots. You should try it, it is awsome. So I love to hike up Smuggler. It is a lot better than bumper cars. You should try it. It is fun! It was the first time I hiked up Smuggler IT WAS SO MUCH FUN!
