Trudge and pull. Trudge and pull. Trudge and pull. She could do this! She was nearly there. Trudge and pull! She was actually finding this a little difficult, but she could do it. She was nearly there. Come on Paton! You can do it. She took a deep breath, and pulled a little harder on the tube, and the tree, hoping to get up there as soon as possible. Then she could have a little rest maybe? Though she didn't want to rest too much, because she didn't want the yeti to get her! So maybe not too much resting.

and she was there! Yay! Hattie sighed, dropping the tube and tree onto the floor. Oh wow. That had been hard. She sighed, taking a few deep breaths to try and recover before the next section. She wanted to be proper recovered, so that she wouldn't like die or something. Clearly she did need to work on her stamina a little, but she was nearly done now! And that was great! She was doing herself proud. She was really excited for the next bit too. It was going to be so cool, to slide down the snow mounds!

But first she needed to tie her tree to her tube. She crouched down, and quickly tied it to her snow tube, so that it wouldn't come off. That would make all of her hard work pulling it up the snow mound hard. When she was satisfied that it was done well, she positioned her tube by the slide, and then got in. Pushing herself off, she started to slide down the snow tube.

"Woooohooooooo!

This was obviously the best bit.
