And so when we 15 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 1: go visit the mountains and see snow at the top, 16 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 1: that is really cool. Well, Teddy and Maybel, we're very 17 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 1: excited to go see the Colorado Rocky Mountains. They packed 18 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 1: all their hiking gear, put on their hiking boots, and 19 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: we're ready for an amazing adventure.

Yeah, Teddy went to 22 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,680 Speaker 1: grab two water bottles. That's really important when you're going 23 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: on a hiking adventure. You gotta stay hydrated and drink 24 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 1: plenty of water. Well, Teddy and Mabel had all their 25 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: things ready and them in their family. They were ready 26 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: for an amazing adventure. They drove out way far into 27 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: the mountains where the trail had beat in. Do you 28 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:05,919 Speaker 1: know what a trail head means? Yeah, trail head means 29 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: it's like the beginning of a trail, like the head. 30 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: If the trail was a body and the trail head 31 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 1: was the top, that is the starting point. Teddy and 32 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: Mabel had planned out this adventure for a very long time. 33 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 1: They even had maps of this trail, and they knew 34 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: that this trail would lead them all the way to 35 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: some snow, which would be really cool to see in 36 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 1: the summertime when it's not snowing that snow it melts 37 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 1: and it turns to what is what happens when snow melts? 38 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 1: Does it turn to lava or candy or water? Water? Yes? Yes, yes, 39 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: of course snow melts and turns to water which starts 40 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: flowing into rivers or waterfalls, and it's really really cold water. 41 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: If you touch it, it would make you shiver and 42 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: maybe turn you instantly to ice. And but no, it 43 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: won't turn neat ice. But it's very cold. And Teddy 44 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 1: and Mabel really wanted to see the beginning of where 45 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: these rivers started from the melting snow. They had a 46 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: long hike ahead of them. It was gonna take several 47 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: hours to get there, but it was worth it. Oh, Teddy, 48 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: could you check the map? Teddy pulled out the map, 49 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 1: and hey, it looks like we're getting closer. They had 50 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: already been hiking for several hours. Teddy, Mabel and their 51 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: parents were working really hard to get up this very 52 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: tall mountain. Up ahead, they heard a strange sound. What 53 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: was that? Was that a mountain lion? Everybody, hold still, 54 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: don't run, don't move a muscle. Teddy, Mabel and their 55 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: family all stood ill. It's not good to run away 56 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: from a bear or something scary. You gotta stand your 57 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: ground and make you look really big and brave. All right, 58 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: I don't hear it anymore. Let's keep walking. They kept walking, 59 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 1: and it's a good thing that sound didn't come from 60 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: the direction that they were headed. Because that wouldn't be 61 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: smart if you were to walk towards that scary sound. 62 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: But it was off to the side. Then they saw 63 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,159 Speaker 1: some trees start to shake, and all of a sudden, 64 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 1: there was Teddy and Mabel both started to scream, and 65 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:44,720 Speaker 1: so did the big monster sturt it bed it yelled, 66 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: be a second, what what are you? It looked like 67 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 1: a ginormous white bear, but not like a bowler bear. 68 00:04:54,600 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 1: But I don't know. I'm him me abominable snowman. And 69 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: what are you doing up here? Who are you? Well? 70 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: My name is Mabel and this is Teddy and parents, 71 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: and we were coming on a hiking adventure. And we're 72 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: really sorry that we scared you. Will you kind of 73 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:19,799 Speaker 1: scared us too? Oh? Well, I'm sorry for scaring you. 74 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: But you see, there's this evil man here. He's trying 75 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 1: to steal all the water, the clean snow melt, and 76 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: I'm I have to stop him. Wait, who is trying 77 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: to steal the water? I don't know, but he's very stinky, 78 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 1: and I don't know why he wants all this water. 79 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: Teddy and Mabel looked at each other. Did he just 80 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: say stinky? Said Teddy. Mabel turned and looked at the 81 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: Abominable Snowman and said, does he look like this? They 82 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: pulled out a picture and the Abominable snow oh Man 83 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: shook his head. Yes, Yes, that's exactly what he looks. 84 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: How do you have a picture of him? It's Doctor 85 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: Stinky Breath. Done, done done. Teddy and Mabel were on 86 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: the spy team and we're always on the lookout for 87 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: Dr Stinky Breath, and they never imagine that he would 88 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: be way up here in the mountains. Okay, well, we 89 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: gotta figure out a way to help this abominable Snowman 90 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:31,559 Speaker 1: stop Doctor Stinky Breath. I don't know why he wants 91 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 1: this water, but it's probably for something evil. Teddy and 92 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 1: Mabel and their whole family put on their spy gear 93 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 1: and got to work. All right, Mr Abominable Snowman said Teddy, 94 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 1: we're gonna need you to hide, and then when that 95 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: Doctor Stinky Breath comes out again, you're gonna need to 96 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: scare him as with the biggest roar that you possibly can. 97 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 1: Can you do that? I don't know if I can. 98 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:07,040 Speaker 1: He's he's very scary looking. You're the Abominable Snowman, said Mabel. 99 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: Everyone is afraid of you. You can do this? Are 100 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: you sure? I guess the Abominable Snowman was not very confident. 101 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,679 Speaker 1: Do you know what it means to be confident? Being 102 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 1: confident means that you're sure of yourself and your abilities. 103 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: So this Abominable Snowman, who I know, we can all 104 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: agree that he is very scary looking and shouldn't have 105 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: any problem scaring off doctor Stinky Breath, he needs to 106 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: believe that. For himself confidence it's not about being you know, 107 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: I'm better than you, but it's just about believing what's true. 108 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: The Abominable Snowman needs to believe and be confident that 109 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: he can scare off doctor Stinky Breath. All right, well, 110 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: I guess I can try. We know that you can, 111 00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: said Teddy, Okay, how do you do well? Sometimes we 112 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: like we choose to be brave as on the spy team, 113 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: when we count to three, then it helps us be brave. Okay, 114 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: I guess I can try that. The Abominable Snowman took 115 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: to his secret position where he was gonna high and 116 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: then jump out and scare off doctor Stinky Breath. He 117 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 1: hid in some bushes and to himself he counted a 118 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 1: three one two. Oh, dear three all. You should have 119 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: seen Dr Stinky Breath's face. He was so afraid of 120 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: that scared abominable snow Man he ran for the hills 121 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: and was never seen there again. He had given up 122 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: in his pursuit of collecting this very special cold water. 123 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 1: Great job, Mr Abominable Snowman, shouted Mabel.
