The rolling mountains are looming in the sea of ​​clouds, like an ink painting. The scattered villages and fields in the distance form a peaceful and beautiful pastoral scenery. [Rose] However, the hardship of going up the mountain is only part of the challenge. The journey down the mountain is also full of tests. The seemingly endless stairs put a huge amount of pressure on my legs. With every step he took, he could feel the soreness in his leg muscles, as if they were protesting the overexertion. But even so, I was still attracted by the scenery along the way. [Rose] The creek in the mountains is gurgling, crystal clear, and the water splashes on the stones, making a crisp sound. The birds sang happily on the branches, as if to cheer for my persistence. The breeze blows and the leaves rustle, bringing the fragrance of nature. [Rose] During this long descent, I wanted to stop and rest countless times, but my inner persistence kept me moving forward. Finally, after three hours of arduous trek, I returned to the foot of the mountain. [Rose] This trip to Yinping Mountain was not just a simple mountain climbing activity for me, but also a challenge and conquest of myself. Although the process was full of hardships and exhaustion, the beautiful natural scenery and the sense of accomplishment after overcoming difficulties made it all extremely worthwhile. [Rose] I believe that this experience will become a precious memory in my life, inspiring me to bravely take firm steps in the future, no matter how difficult it is.
