Have you ever seen 10 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 1: very big mountains before? Mountains are so cool and sometimes 11 00:00:56,120 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 1: very very big. And at the very top of big, 12 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 1: big mountains, do you know that white stuff up there? Yeah, snow. 13 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 1: Where I live there is not very much snow, and 14 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,199 Speaker 1: so when we go visit the mountains and see snow 15 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: at the top, that is really cool. Well, Teddy and Mabel, 16 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: we're very excited to go see the Colorado Rocky Mountains. 17 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 1: They packed all their hiking gear, put on their hiking boots, 18 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 1: and were ready for an amazing adventure. Mabel, are you ready? 19 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: Said Teddy? Yep, I got all my stuff. Uh, could 20 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: you grab the water bottles for us? Yeah, Teddy went 21 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: to grab two water bottles. That's really important when you're 22 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: going on a hiking adventure. You gotta stay hydrated and 23 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: drink plenty of water. Well, Teddy and Mabel had all 24 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: their things ready and them and their family they were 25 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: ready for an amazing adventure. They drove out way far 26 00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 1: into the mountains where the trail had been. Do you 27 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: know what a trail head means? Yeah, trail head means 28 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 1: it's like the beginning of a trail, like the head 29 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 1: of if the trail was a body, and the trail 30 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: head was the top, that is the starting point. Teddy 31 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: and Mabel had planned out this adventure for a very 32 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,360 Speaker 1: long time. They even had maps of this trail. They 33 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 1: knew that this trail would lead them all the way 34 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 1: to some snow, which would be really cool to see 35 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 1: in the summertime when it's not snowing. That's snow. It 36 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 1: melts and it turns to what is what happens when 37 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:46,359 Speaker 1: snow melts? Does it turn to lava or candy or water? Water? Yes? Yes, 38 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: says of course. Snow melts and turns to water which 39 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 1: starts flowing into rivers or waterfalls, and it's really really 40 00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: cold water. If you touch it, it would make you 41 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: shiver and maybe turn you instantly to ice. And no, 42 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: it won't turn you ice, but it's very cold. And 43 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: Teddy and Mabel really wanted to see the beginning of 44 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 1: where these rivers started from the melting snow. They had 45 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 1: a long hike ahead of them. It was going to 46 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 1: take several hours to get there, but it was worth it. Oh, Teddy, 47 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: could you check the map? Teddy pulled out the map, 48 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: and hey, it looks like we're getting closer. They had 49 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: already been hiking for several hours. Teddy, Mabel and their 50 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: parents were working really hard to get up this very 51 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 1: tall mountain up ahead. They heard a strange sound. Right, 52 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: what was that? Was that a mountain lion? 53 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 2: Huh? 54 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: Everybody, hold still, don't run, don't move a muscle. Teddy, 55 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: Mabel and their family all stood ill. It's not good 56 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: to run away from a bear or something scary. You 57 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 1: gotta stand your ground and make you look really big 58 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: and brave. All right, I don't hear it anymore. Let's 59 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 1: keep walking. They kept walking, and it's a good thing 60 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 1: that sound didn't come from the direction that they were headed, 61 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: because that wouldn't be smart if you were to walk 62 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: towards that scary sound. But it was off to the side. 63 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: Then they saw some trees start to shake, and all 64 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:36,359 Speaker 1: of a sudden, there it was. Teddy and Mabel both 65 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: started to scream, and so did the big monster. U 66 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: s turned me, it yelled, wait a second, what are you? 67 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,839 Speaker 1: It looked like a ginormous white bear, but not like 68 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 1: a bowler bear. But I don't know. 69 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 3: I'm himy abominable snowman, And what are you doing up here? 70 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,919 Speaker 1: Who are you? Well, my name's Mabel and this is 71 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: Teddy and my parents, and we were coming on a 72 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: hiking adventure and we're really sorry that we scared you. 73 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,600 Speaker 1: Well you kind of scared us too. Well, I'm sorry 74 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: for scaring you. But you see, there's this evil man here. 75 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: He's trying to steal all the water, the clean snow melt, 76 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: and I'm I have to stop him. Wait who is 77 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: trying to steal the water? I don't know, but he's 78 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: very stinky, and I don't know why he wants all 79 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 1: this water. Teddy and Mabel looked at each other. Did 80 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:50,279 Speaker 1: he just say stinky? Said Teddy? Mabel turned and looked 81 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 1: at the Abominable Snowman and said, does he look like this? 82 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:01,039 Speaker 1: They pulled out a picture, and the Abominable snow shook 83 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: his head. Yes, yes, that's exactly what he looks. How 84 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: do you have a picture of him? It's doctor Stinky Breath. 85 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: Don don Dawn. Teddy and Mabel, we're on the spy team, 86 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: and we're always on the lookout for doctor Stinky Breath, 87 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: and they never imagined that he would be way up 88 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: here in the mountains. Okay, well, we gotta figure out 89 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 1: a way to help this abominable snowman stop Doctor Stinky Breath. 90 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: I don't know why he wants this water, but it's 91 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: probably for something evil. Teddy and Mabel and their whole 92 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: family put on their spy gear and got to work. 93 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: All right, mister Abominable Snowman said Teddy, we're gonna need 94 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 1: you to hide, and then when that doctor Stinky Breath 95 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: comes out again, you're gonna need to scare him as 96 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: with the biggest roar that you possibly can. Can you 97 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:56,359 Speaker 1: do that? 98 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 3: I don't know if I can. He's very scary looking. 99 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 3: You're the Abominable Snowman, said Mabel. Everyone's afraid of you. 100 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: You can do this? 101 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 2: Are you sure? 102 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: I guess the Abominable Snowman was not very confident. Do 103 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: you know what it means to be confident? Being confident 104 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: means that you're sure of yourself and your abilities. So 105 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: this Abominable Snowman, who I know, we can all agree 106 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: that he is very scary looking and shouldn't have any 107 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: problems scaring off doctor Stinky Breath, he needs to believe 108 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: that for himself confidence, it's not about being you know, 109 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: I'm better than you, but it's just about believing what's true. 110 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: The Abominable Snowman needs to believe and be confident that 111 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: he can scare off doctor Stinky Breath. All right, well, 112 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: I guess I can try. We know that you can, 113 00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: said Teddy, okay, ah, how do you do that? Well, 114 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: sometimes we like we choose to be brave, as on 115 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 1: the spy team when we counted three, then it helps 116 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: us be brave. Okay, I guess I can try that. 117 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 1: The Abominable Snowman took to his secret position where he 118 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: was gonna hide and then jump out and scare off 119 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: Doctor Stinky Breath.

He was 123 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: so afraid of that scared abominable snowman he ran for 124 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: the hills and was never seen there again. He had 125 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 1: given up in his pursuit of collecting this very special 126 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 1: cold water.
