点评:I just completed a 4 day Yosemite wilderness backpacking trip with a summit of Half Dome via the infamous cables. Thanks to the professional staff at Wilderness Adventures and my amazing guide, John, I would consider this among my favorite " trips of a lifetime". Having summited Kili and completed the Everest Base Camp trek, this is quite a compliment.
A lot of the credit goes to my guide, John. He did everything he could to make our trek as memorable as possible, from helping us pack our heavy backpacks, setting up our camp including our tents, cooking us a hot meal at night, making sure our water bottles were always filled with filtered water from the river to planning a sunset hot dinner with secret desert on the summit of Half Dome.
He also made the hours hiking and climbing pass more quickly with his wealth of information about Yosemite Valley, its flora and fauna, and the characters who have inhabited it in the past and present. There was not a single question that he could not answer thoroughly and entertainingly.
An added benefit, he is a big wall rock climber!
He shared many interesting stories about the history of the community and technical climbing. Also felt much more confident in his ability to get us up and down Half Dome.
So if you are looking to add Half Dome to your bucket list, l highly recommend Lasting Adventures and John, my guide.
翻译:我刚刚完成了为期 4 天的优胜美地荒野背包旅行,通过臭名昭著的缆车登上了半圆顶山顶。感谢 Wilderness Adventures 的专业员工和出色的导游 John,我认为这是我最喜欢的“一生之旅”之一。我曾登顶乞力马扎罗山并完成了珠穆朗玛峰大本营徒步旅行,这是对我莫大的赞美。
我的导游 John 功不可没。他尽一切努力让我们的徒步旅行尽可能难忘,从帮助我们打包沉重的背包,搭建包括帐篷在内的营地,晚上为我们做一顿热饭,确保我们的水瓶里总是装满了河里的过滤水,到计划在半圆顶山顶上享用日落热晚餐,享用秘密沙漠。
他还通过丰富的优胜美地山谷、动植物群以及过去和现在居住在这里的人物信息,让徒步旅行和攀登的时间过得更快。没有一个问题他不能彻底而有趣地回答。
额外的好处是,他是一位出色的攀岩爱好者!
他分享了许多关于社区历史和技术攀岩的有趣故事。也对他带领我们爬上爬下半圆顶的能力更有信心。
所以,如果你想把半圆顶加入你的愿望清单,我强烈推荐 Lasting Adventures 和我的导游约翰。
