A group of people walking in single file across a narrow trail or bridge in a wooded area during autumn. Fallen leaves cover the path and the ground below, with a small stream running underneath. The hikers are wearing casual clothing and backpacks, and the surrounding trees have colorful fall foliage. Five people sitting on the ground outdoors, gathered around a circular hoop divided into four sections with yellow string. Each person has a notebook or clipboard with a diagram of a circle and is writing or pointing toward the hoop. Fallen leaves and grass are scattered on the ground. A group of children dressed in winter jackets and hats standing near the edge of a frozen lake, facing the water. They are gathered around an adult who appears to be leading an outdoor activity. A wooden bench is in the foreground, and bare trees surround the lake under a partly cloudy blue sky.
