| Pose of success after the 11 mile, 10 hour hike to the summit of the Turrialba Volcano |
This trip has been nothing short of extraordinary. Beginning our journey as scientists, we faced the feat of the Turrialba volcano, which at times required a 45 degree angle hike up hill. We sat in an empty room for hours on end with nothing but field guides in hand. Each group put together a hypothesis from scratch, and obtained remarkable data. I am glad I went on this trip so I could fully immerse myself in being a scientist. I now not only have a general idea of what a biodiversity study is, but I have also helped to complete one which could possibly get published. From hiking to volcano summits in the clouds to being eye-to-eye with a sloth and her baby, this trip will forever stay with me throughout all the places science takes me.
