CAMP SPEARS!!!!

This week we had a fun field trip to camp spears. I learned a lot for my 2 days there. Here are some of the things I learned.

1) You can eat teaberry leaves and Birch twigs.

2) Birch beer is made from the roots of the birch tree.

3) Bogs are very still waters with mud water and leaves.

4) Bogs can be as deep as 20 feet!

5) When building a shelter,  make sure it is small so heat can be contained.

6) Over 2000 years ago, a monk was sacrificed in a bog and experts found him completely preserved.
