Beautiful, but confusing and arduous
Nine Mile Pond Canoe Trail的点评
点评:We appreciate a good adventure and we paddle in kayaks a couple times a year with our kids (10 & 12). However, this "trail" ended up being quite difficult to follow. In fact, we could never find the beginning and instead had to traverse it backwards. That worked fine some of the time, but there were stretches with no visible marking poles and identical landscape that would make it VERY easy to get lost. Finding each subsequent pole was a fun game, but then not finding them felt a little scary. You have to concentrate so hard to find the poles that there is not really time to just relax into the surroundings. Some areas (around the 80s) were pretty difficult to paddle; maybe the water level was getting low? It took us 3 hours to paddle the short version (utilizing the shortcut), which includes 30 minutes we spent trying to find the beginning. Overall, the scenery was beautiful, but I'm not sure I'd recommend it with kids, and it would be really helpful if the poles could be a bright color or something more visible in the brush.
翻译:我们喜欢一次愉快的冒险,我们每年都会和我们的孩子(10 岁和 12 岁)划几次皮划艇。然而,这条“踪迹”最终变得相当难以追踪。事实上,我们永远找不到起点,只能倒着走。这在某些时候工作得很好,但有些路段没有明显的标记杆和相同的景观,这使得它很容易迷路。找到随后的每一个杆子都是一个有趣的游戏,但是找不到它们会让人感到有点害怕。您必须非常集中精力才能找到电线杆,以至于没有时间放松到周围环境中。有些地区(80 年代左右)很难划桨;也许水位变低了?我们花了 3 个小时来划短版(利用捷径),其中包括我们试图找到起点的 30 分钟。总的来说,风景很美,但我不确定我是否会推荐给孩子们,如果杆子可以是鲜艳的颜色或在刷子中更明显的东西,那将非常有帮助。
