Justin enjoys hiking with his family, as it is their favorite hobby. One day, while hiking the forest, Justin found an abandoned car with an old locked box inside. He decided to find out what was in it.
Justin and the rest of the Jones family enjoyed hiking. They would drive to the top hiking spots around the country, be it the forest, hills, or mountains.
