    The girls hiked higher and higher. They
    swatted bugs. They drank bottles of water.
    “I’m tired,” Inez said.
    After a rest and a snack, Linda and Inez
    sang songs. Inez felt better.
    They saw chipmunks. A hawk flew high

    “Hiking is hard work,” Linda said, “but
    I love it!”

    swatted: hit away

    Mrs. Martínez led the way. There were


    seven girls and two adults. Mrs. Chang
    made sure everyone hiked safely.
    Everyone had a full backpack. The
    hikers needed lots of water, snacks,
    and lunch. They had extra clothes too.
    Everyone needed a jacket, a raincoat, hat,
    and mittens. Even in summer, mountain
    weather can be cold.
    “As we climb higher,” Mrs. Chang said,
    “the weather will get colder.”

    The group hiked higher up Mount
    Washington. Linda found the snow first.
    “I can’t believe there is snow in July,” Linda
    shouted. “My brother won’t believe me!”
    The girls put on their jackets, gloves,
    and hats, and they played in the snow.
    They felt chilly now. The wind blew. They
    were happy to have warm clothes.
    After fun, rest, and another snack, Mrs.
    Martínez called the girls. “We have to hike
    back now,” she said.

    chilly: cold

    The girls ate lunch beside a ranger


    station. A ranger talked to them about
    Mount Washington.
    “You are lucky,” the ranger said. “The
    weather is perfect today. Storms can be so
    bad on this mountain. Bad weather can
    make hiking dangerous.”
    “Will we see snow?” Linda asked.
    “Yes,” the ranger said. “There is plenty
    of snow left on parts of the mountain.”
