Do NOT use the mules, otherwise an amazing trip!

Havasu Falls的点评

点评：Amazing, gorgeous, and breathtaking place! However, we witnessed multiple disturbing and concerning events regarding the treatment of the pack mules on the trail. We did not use the mules to carry out gear (we carried our own gear), but we came across countless groups of mules during our hike. The conditions with which these mules were being forced to travel were scary and unsafe for both the animals and the hikers. The animals were tightly tethered together, including by the neck, and were being driven forward at a run with yelling and the use of a whip. They were not allowed to slow down or stop. The pace and proximity of the animals appeared to create significant stress among the groups. I witnessed two mule groups become spooked and collide with one another. One mule fell to the ground and did not get up while we were present, and another lost its pack during the incident. I did not take photographs or video out of respect for those involved, but it was distressing to witness. At the trailhead, I observed several teams of mules tied near the pavilion area with limited shade. Some were tied so tightly that they could not move their heads, and no water was available for them. Havasupai Falls was an INCREDIBLE place to visit, but please carry your own gear (or make your friend carry it for you hehe!) , but please do NOT book a mule to carry your gear for you.

翻译：这里景色美得令人惊叹，令人叹为观止！然而，我们在徒步过程中目睹了多起令人不安的事件，这些事件都与驮骡的待遇有关。我们没有使用骡子驮运装备（我们自己背负），但在徒步过程中，我们遇到了无数的骡群。这些骡子被迫在极其恶劣的条件下行进，对它们和徒步者来说都非常危险。它们被紧紧地拴在一起，有的甚至被拴在脖子上，在鞭子的驱赶下，被大声呵斥着向前奔跑。它们不被允许减速或停下来。这种行进的速度和拥挤程度似乎给骡群造成了巨大的压力。我亲眼看到两群骡子受到惊吓，互相碰撞。其中一头骡子摔倒在地，在我们面前再也没有站起来，另一头骡子在事故中丢掉了驮包。出于对相关人员的尊重，我没有拍照或录像，但目睹这一切确实令人痛心。在步道起点，我看到好几队骡子被拴在凉亭附近，那里几乎没有遮荫的地方。有些被绑得太紧，连头都动不了，而且没有水喝。哈瓦苏瀑布是个非常棒的景点，但请务必自己携带装备（或者让朋友帮你背，哈哈！），千万不要租骡子驮行李。
