Hike In Lower/ Upper Pierce Reservoirs 3rd February 2018

Written by Trisha Chan, Senior Sixer & Scribe

After we did a head count, we set out for the first hike of the year at Lower/Upper Pierce Reservoir. We got into a bus that drove us to Lower Pierce to start off. We trekked through Lower Pierce in a flash, without even breaking a sweat. Along the way, we saw trees, fishes, and early morning joggers.

Soon, we were done with Lower Pierce and began the trek to start on Upper Pierce. It was an exhausting and energy-sapping trek. Along the way, we were greeted by several steep hills that got everybody groaning and moaning. However, when we walked closer, we realized that it was just an optical illusion. Instead of a steep hill, they were gradual ascending slopes!

Finally, we reached Upper Pierce Reservoir! The water was a crystalline blue and it was crystal clear. After we had our snacks and played some games, we boarded the bus, arrived back in Henry Park and were promptly dismissed.
