Summary of 6-8:
In chapter 6 of Far North, Clint and Gabe were on the plane again to start their sight seeing rout on the way to Nahanni Butte. They pass over several beautiful mountain ranges and then they fly over Virginia Falls and they decide to touch down for a closer look. In chapter 7 they find that the plane wont start and is quickly getting washed toward the drop down the falls. They try to push it to shore but its to heavy so they get out and swim to land themselves. They salvage as many supplies as possible before the plane goes over but then they realize that they really needed 2 items that were left on the plane so Clint tries to go get them and its able to toss Gabe the item before he is washed over the drop with the plane. After that Gabe goes looking for Clint to see if he survived the fall while they try to keep warm also. In chapter 8 Gabe comes back to where the old man had started a fire. They talk for a while discussing how long it will take for someone to find them, what to do until then to survive, and some other random things before going to sleep for the night.
Answer to prompt 14- my thoughts for the characters
In my opinion Gabe's character seems like he has a brave, friendly personality. He sounds like he likes to explore the outdoors and stuff like that. Clint's character seems like he enjoys laughing and joking about things. His character is very courageous and seems to care about his friends especially in the part where he went back onto the plane to get the things for them and their survival when he could have let one of them do it. The old man"s character seems kind of mysterious but also very wise.My favorite character so far is Raymond. I think Raymond is a good character because for one he's unique. He seemed like he has a chill attitude and a real personality. Those are things I can respect in a person.
So far I don't have a character I dislike because they're all pretty good people by the way the story describes them.But one thing I thought wasn't cool of them was when they didn't do more to help save Clint. I don't think any of the characters really represent anyone in particular that I know of. Raymond does kind of reminds me of my sister in some ways though like the fact that they both like electric guitar and don't like math, etc. Something that I think would change my opinion about some of the characters would be if their was a twist in their personality. Something like if one of the characters wasn't who they seemed at first. If someone who seemed like they were mean was really a nice person just going through something.
nice
