Sprint 1

Sprint 1 These past two weeks, I worked on finding something I was passionate about for the course of the semester. I decided to create a project called “Idaho Adventures,” to show people how great Idaho is. To do this, I also decided I was going to create several blog posts. The purpose of brainstorming these past few weeks was to find something that I could be passionate about and help others enjoy Rexburg. I decided to brainstorm and come up with a process of approaching this project. I brainstormed a list of topics I would like to write on. The first two topics are Cress Creek Natural Trail and the Rexburg Rock gym. This past week, I took a trip to go hike Cress Creek nature trail.

There are walls of ice surrounding the entire cave. There is not a ton of room for standing up in the cave and you may need to crawl at some points.
