Last holiday I was hiking in the mountains. The sun was shining, it was a really warm day, one cloud on the horizon. I wasn’t expecting any danger, when I sprained my ankle. It was really dangerous for me, because my feet catched between rocks.
I was there with my best friend Ann. We were hiking in the mountains since we were kids. It was pretty relxing for us. Every year we are going to different places to discaver diffrent experiences.
Coming back to my ankle, it was so much pain. We had to go to the hispital, because my ankle was in very bad condition. My friend couldn’t help me a lot becausce she wasn’t strong enough to hold me and take me to the shelter. We started panick, because I couldn’t walk on my own.
We decided to call for help. Fortunately we had signal so it was a moment when our help took the phon. We told them about how the situation look like. They sent the helicopter in few minutes.
Everything was go out happy, when I arrived to the hospital the best doctors hepls me and my ankle is good now.

Last holiday I was hiking in the mountains. The sun was shining, it was a really warm day, only one cloud on the horizon. I wasn't expecting any danger, when my friend saw a little wolf. We were very scared. My friend started running from animal, so I followed her. When we were running she turned her ankle. She couldn’t moved. And a little wolf was closer and closer to us. Not far from us, I saw bushes when we could hide. We got there as quickly as possible and waited for the animal to run on. After some time it was possible for us to come out of hiding and call the emergency services for my friend. When we come out for bushes we had a lot of scratches and some of these were badly gash. So now we have scars from it. Later it turned out that my friend broke her leg so they put on a cast.

Last holiday I was hiking in the mountains. The sun was shining, it was a really warm day, only one cloud on the horizon. I wasn't expecting any danger, when... the weather suddenly changed completly. We were in the Tatra mountains. It was just a weekend trip with friends. We dind't expect any troubles. We thought that would be easy trip. Unfortunately we were wrong. The beginning of the trail was quite simple. That was a normal path in the forest. Everyone was happy. But then, it became more and more difficult. There was already open space. There were elements of climbing. The temperature has decreased with every minute. Then the strong wind appeared. That was a warning signal for us. The weather has clearly become worse. We had to decide what to do next. We could continue along the trail to the moutain. However, we could also go back to the shelter for our safety. Nature has helped us to make decision. We heard a thunder that told us only one thing... A storm is coming. We knew that it was very dangerous in the mountains. So we went back to the shelter quite quickly. After an hour the weather definitely improved and we could finish our trip.

...the rock has collapsed. I was very scared. I was alone there so if something happened to me I would be in trouble. A few minutes later my knee started to hurt. The pain became excruciating over time. I found painkillers in my backpack and took two pieces. It helped me a lot. I wanted to go back to the hotel, but my knee still hurt. I thought I'd call for help but unfortunately my phone was dead. Suddenly it started to rain. I was in the middle of nowhere! Everything was against me. I sat down on a rock and I started to think how to survive. An hour later a patrol helicopter arrived. I screamed as loud as I could. These were the emergency services. They heard me and after an hour I was in the hospital. I had hypothermia and my kneecap was broken. I am very lucky guy!

When I saw something strange in a forest. This thing was tall and had deer horns on his head. It wasn’t a human, trying to scare me. His eyes was glowing yellow. I was really scared because it’s staring at me. After that I only want to run anyway. On my misfortunate I run directly in some kind of small cliff, 4-5 meters only. When I woke up, my legs hurts very much. Both of my legs were broken and one had a scare that need stitches. In this situation I lost hope. I was scared that something will came after me. Then I realized between me and nearest shelter was only 50 meters. With outstanding effort I start crawling on the path to shelter. On my fortunate some guys were walking this path and saw me. They immediately take me to shelter. After a one year I was available to walk. Someday I looked in internet that thing was spotted many times before. As the internet told it could be “The Ghost of The Montains”.

When it suddenly started to get dangerous. I checked the weather this morning and there wasn't a word about the storm. The wind broke and suddenly it started to rain heavily, i didn't know where to hide because there were only trees around, my friend started to panic and i didn't feel too safe either. Slowly i started to lose hope that we would find some shelter because we had been walking for quite a long time and the storm was still raging when i suddenly noticed the hut. We went to her quickly to wait for the storm safely.The storm lasted for two more houurs, even though we were in a safe place i was still sitting in fear that we wouldn't be able to get out of here, but luckily we managed to get home safely.

Last holiday I was hiking in the mountains. The sun was shining, it was a really warm day, only one cloud on the horizon. I wasn't expecting any danger, when I heard a cry for help. I ran along the road and saw that a bear was trying to approach a man. I was scared more than the man. I told him to calm down, stop screaming and slowly back away. The bear lost interest in us and we were able to move on easily. Our hearts beat very fast for a long time. As we were at the end of the tour, I tripped over a rock and fell. My leg hurt a lot but I could move it. Janek, the man I "saved", called a taxi and we went to the emergency room. It just turned out that it was a bruise and I have to cover my leg with ice until the end of the day. Later, Janek escorted me to the hotel because it was very close to the hospital. Since that event, with the bear and mine, he has been in contact with Janek and we both go on trips being careful and staying away from wild animals.

When my brother saw two little bears. Bears were having fun and they didn't see us. We were watching them in silence, when we heard a loud roar. It was their mom. We were very afraid and we couldn't move for a few minutes. When we calmed down me and my brother hid behind a big stone. We are listening what bears do. Bears were having fun and makeing noise. After a few minutes bears got bored of play and left this place. We fast went to the other way. We are very lucky.

Last holiday I was hiking in the mountains. The sun was shining, it was a really warm day, only one cloud on the horizon. I wasn't expecting any danger, when I saw gray smoke surround me from everywhere. I started to coming closer and closer with growing excitation and I stepped on small stone lying on the ground. Immadiately I felt strong pain inside my ankle. I sit down on grass to take off shoes,my ankle was swollen a lot,but unfortunately I have had to cover 2 kilometers to reach safety point of route,which was very hard to do,but luckly I saw someone far away. I started shouting and nearest tourist spotted me. "My hero" took me under arm and bring me back to shelter.After this stressful accident I went to the doctor,he gave me painkillers and I were getting better for 3 weeks at home.The truth from this situation is very easy to keep and worldknown,when we are going in the mountains we should be ready for everything.

Last holiday I was hiking in the mountains. The Sun was shining, it was a really warm day, only one cloud on the horizon. I wasn't expecting any danger, when I saw an unconscious girl on the path. I ran to her. She did not wake up. I screamed for help. A man, who was a doctor, heard me. He called the mountain ambulance service. He lifted the girl's legs and told me to cool her forehead. The girl woke up. She was extremely exhausted and dehydrated. We gave her water and provided shade. After a while we saw a rescue helicopter. Lifeguards put the girl on a stretcher and they took her to the nearest hospital. The girl was lucky. If the weather broke, no one would probably find her. After this situation, I lost the desire to continue my journey. I returned to the shelter and ate dinner to strengthen myself. It was an exhausting day.

Last holiday I was hiking in the mountains. The sun was shining, it was a really warm day, only one cloud on the horizon. I wasn't expecting any danger, when suddenly the earth shook. I was confused, I didn't know what was going to happen next. I came with my parents to Switzerland to visit my uncle who lives here. He really wanted to lead us around the mountains and his favorite mountain routes. For the first few days, he led us along very beautiful trails. On that day, when the ground shook under my feet, he took us on the trail leading to the glacier. I really wanted to see him. But I really wouldn't have expected an avalanche one day. It was terrifying. I panicked, a huge panic. Uncle was very calm. I asked him if something would happen to us? Everything was flying towards us. Uncle said we should stand still and watch. When the ground stopped shaking, the avalanche stopped, everything stopped. Uncle told us that the whole avalanche fell into the abyss.
After all this situation, we continued walking towards our goal. After a few hours, we reached the glacier. I've always wanted to see him. It was such a beautiful sight. I recommend everyone to go there.
A great experience!!!

Suddenly, it started raining heavily! We were in the middle of the trail and we couldn't hide anywhere. We got soaked through and were terrified because the storm was beginning. The rocks were slippery and mud was everywhere. The route was too danger for further hiking.
Unfortunately, Tom slipped and twisted his ankle. It took us 1 hour to call for a help because there was not the best signal. Finally, we sorted it and medical lifeguards arrived very quickly. We came back home and decided that it was our last trip to the mountains.

Last holiday I was hiking in the mountains. The sun was shining, it was a really warm day, only one cloud on the horizon. I wasn't expecting any danger, when.. a giant bear emerged from behind the bushes. I was scared, when this wild animal stood in my way. Once I read information about how to behave in such a situation. I decided it would be best if I stayed calm. I pretended not to see him. Corner of my eye I noticed that, this bear looked at me with its big eyes. The animal stopped and watched me curiously. When the bear stood on two legs, it seemed even more mighty. I was afraid, but I didn’t show it. To my surprise, the wild animal began to withdraw and walk towards the forest. At the moment I felt a great relief. I think I was very lucky. It was a day of adventure.

Last holiday I was hiking in the mountains. The sun was shining, it was a really warm day, only one cloud on the horizon. I wasn’t expecting any danger, when admiring the delightful views, I unhappily tripped and hit against the huge protruding rock.
I felt terrible pain and I saw that my ankle was twisted. This accident pressured me to sit down, because it was definitely impossible to move my leg and go on a further journey.
Before my trip, I packed only a backpack containing a small first aid kit, one litre of water and a few snacks, because i felt sure i would be back in the evening of the same day and the weather would be a little less sizzling.
I prefer alone hiking in the mountains, because I really appreciate every single time, when i can be alone, so I didn’t invite any of my friends for a common journey.
Fortunately, when I was preparing for this day, I fully charged my phone, so I had the opportunity to notify authorities about my accident, before a water supply runs out. High temperatures made it difficult to wait for help. The time dragged mercilessly, but finnaly, fighting exhaustion, I heard a rescue helicopter. The pilot spotted me and took me to the hospital.

Last holiday I was hiking in the mountains. The sun was shining, it was a really warm day, only one cloud on the horizon. I wasn't expecting any danger, when my friend sprained his ankle. He started screaming out loud in pain. I didn't know what I was supposed to do.
I knew he had to get to the hospital quickly but we were high in the mountains and it was simply impossible. Further up I fainted from exhaustion. I think it's because of hot weather. I tried to call for help, but unfortunately there wasn't any signal.
I decided to wait for other tourists, who would help him and me go down to the shelter. I think we waited an hour before anyone showed up. It was a young couple who gladly helped us. They helped us safely go down to the shelter, where the doctor was waiting.
I was very happy when I knew we were safe. However, I will remember this story for a very long time. At the same time, it is a warning for everyone that they should be careful on the trail and take their time. In a year's time I plan to return to the same mountains again because then I will feel real freedom!

Last holiday I was hiking in the mountains. The sun was shining, it was a really warm day, only one cloud on the horizon. I wasn't expecting any danger, when I saw the monster. I was very scared. I thought it was real, but when the emotions dropped I saw the truth. It turned out to was only a shadow of an old trunk. I decided to go further. When I got to the top I saw an amazing sight. The mountains in full sun are breathtaking. It was the best time to take a break. I sat down on a rock and decided to look inside my backpack. When I tried to take out the apple I saw a spider. I immediately got up and backed away. Unfortunately I slipped and twisted my ankle. The pain was terrible. I couldn't go back alone. I had to call the rescue crew. After a few hours, I was exhausted, but I heard the helicopter. I knew help is near. This beautiful sight was even worth an ankle sprain.

Last holiday I was hiking in the mountains. The sun was shining, it was a really warm day, only one cloud on the horizon. I wasn’t expecting any danger, when all of a sudden the weather changed rapidly. Suddenly a dense fog appeared around me and my friend Mark. We tied ourselves up with a cord and kept walking straight ahead for a few more minutes, but after a while we started to have a problem with sense of direction, because the fog limited our field of vision too much. We felt very confused. We both decided it was time to turn back.
Suddenly, somewhere in the distance, we heard howling and strange noises. We were a bit scared, because in that situation we didn’t want to meet wild animals, so we accelerated. Me and Mark were already halfway to the shelter, when suddenly I collapsed and unfortunately my foot was stuck between rocks. It was very painful. My friend helped me up, but I was unable to stand on my right foot. Mark stated that I probably sprained my ankle. I couldn’t go any further on my own. Luckily, thanks to his help I was able to walk the last few kilometers that separated us from the shelter. On the spot, we immediately called for help. I was quickly taken to the hospital, where the doctors helped me.

Last holiday I was hiking in the mountains. The sun was shining, it was a really warm day, only one cloud on the horizon. I wasn't expecting any danger, until i saw the biggest spider in the world. I was so terrified that i coudn’t do anything, I coudn’t speak, coudn’t move like i were paralyzed. Then the spider spoke to me „I will eat you all”. Then I thought i have to do something to stop him and save all people there. I saw stick next to my leg. I picked up the stick and started running as fast as i could. I had been running for really long time but he was still on my doorstep. Suddenly I saw the shelter so as fast as possible I ran there. Fortunately I survived ladies and gentlemen!! I was safe there, because the terrible furry monster ran far away. When i’m thinking about this situation it seems to be funny but in that moment I was frightened.

when the huge boulder rolled from nearby hill ,he was rolling very fast right at me. I had to run away from him.
There were prickly bushes on the right side of the path and a mountain river on the left side .I had to make a decision quickly so without thinking any longer
I jumped into the bushes ,the boulder rolled past me and fell into the river. Everything hurt myself after I came out of the bushes, I had spikes in my hands
it looked terrible. I pulled the spikes out with difficulty and treated my hands with the first aid kit I had with me.I rested a bit and then set off on the way back, since then
I don't go to the mountains that often and I always take someone with me.

Last holiday I was hiking in the mountains. The sun was shining, it was a really warm day, only one cloud on the horizon. I wasn't expecting any danger,when I heard a voice from afar. Somebody shouted: Help! I decided to approach slowly towards the screaming. When I was very close, my leg slipped off the rock and started to hurt, but I kept walking. At one point, I saw a person calling for help. It was a girl who was sitting on a rock. I met her once at camp. I went closer and asked what happened. She showed me her hand. After a short dialogue, it turned out that she fell down and hurt her hand hard. I had a first aid kit with me, so I quickly treated her wound. At that moment I forgot about the pain in my leg, but the girl saw that it swollen up a lot. We unanimously decided to finish our climb for the day and slowly went downstairs where we called an ambulance, because I couldn't go any further. It was a great climbing adventure with little side effects.

Last holiday I was hiking in the mountains. The sun was shining, it was a really warm day, only one cloud on the horizon. I wasn't expecting any danger, when big bear atack me. It was so surprising, becouse i didn't saw him earlier. I had bad thinks how it will end. I didn't remember what at that situation i will do, when in heart I start panic. I start running when bear came closer. It was bad idea. He started runing follow me. At this moment only what I had in mind to do was run faster than bear. I was jumping through rocks, boulders and fallen trees. I thought it was my end when I fell down. I wasn't have more energy for escape from this cave or grotto. I spent here few hours when someone tourist find me. I was so scared but with scratches I have good lesson how to keep save when bear atack you.

when the rock hit me on the head. This rock was small and not to heavy therefore I was only lightly wounded and lost my consciansness for a while. I was alone in the mountains. I was dreaming about dragons and kings. This was very strange. When I woke up I dind't have any wqater and food with me. I was very afraid. It started to rain. I was very exhausted therefore I drunk water from the puddle. I was lucky because I was very weak. I felt pain in my head. I spent one sleepless night on the mountain. Next day my accidently a tourist found me and look after me and help me go down the mountain. I was very lucky to alive.

Last summer I hiked in the mountains. The sun was shining, it was a really warm day, only one cloud on the horizon. I was not expecting any danger when suddenly I felt a slight breeze. 10 minutes later, the sky turned very dark, cloudy, looks so dangerous. Lightning was visible on the horizon. I was horrified. The slopes were slippery and it was easy to fall down. Unfortunately, I tripped over a stone and broke my leg.
I called WOPR.I was scared, I don't like the storm and my leg hurt a lot. I waited a long time for the rescuers to come. This would be the worst trip of my life.
