点评:I booked a Narrows tour for January for me and my husband. We like to hike in colder weather - less bugs, crowds, heat. Whitney was our guide and it was the best hike we have ever been on. It even beat out our hikes in Alaska. We are pretty familiar with dressing for cold weather, but the website had good information to help us prepare. And Whitney helped us dress and layer up before heading out (layers of neoprene socks, water shoes, full dry suit with rubber gaskets for your limbs to keep the water out). With my base layer, fleece layer, and packable winter coat, I was never cold and the water was just above freezing. I had water resistant gloves that kept my hands warm. The water resistant feature wasn't necessary - I never had to touch the water and get my hands wet. Whitney was very knowledgeable about the area and the history of the park, and our hike was so enjoyable. It felt like we were hiking with a friend :) She actually called the day before our reservation and told us it would be best to hike the day after our reservation because the weather would be pretty brutal. I'm glad our schedule worked so we could postpone the hike a day - it was so worth it and we were very grateful she was monitoring the weather for our hike. I would highly recommend Zion Adventures, Whitney as your guide, and hiking during the winter. An amazing experience!
翻译:我为我和我丈夫预订了一月份的锡安峡谷徒步之旅。我们喜欢在天气凉爽的时候徒步——这样蚊虫少、人少、也不热。惠特尼是我们的向导,这绝对是我们经历过的最棒的徒步之旅,甚至超过了我们在阿拉斯加的徒步。我们对如何应对寒冷天气的着装已经相当熟悉,但网站上的信息仍然很实用,帮助我们做好准备。出发前,惠特尼还帮我们穿好衣服,并根据天气情况做了分层搭配(包括多层氯丁橡胶袜、溯溪鞋,以及带有橡胶密封圈的全身干式潜水服,可以防止水进入四肢)。我穿着保暖内衣、抓绒衣和可折叠的冬装外套,一点也不觉得冷,而当时的水温也只是略高于冰点。我戴了防水手套,让双手保持温暖。不过,防水功能其实用不上——我根本没碰过水,手也没湿过。惠特尼对这片区域和公园的历史非常了解,我们的徒步之旅也因此变得格外愉快。感觉就像和朋友一起徒步旅行一样 :) 她甚至在我们预订的前一天打电话告诉我们,最好把徒步安排在预订日期的第二天,因为天气会非常恶劣。我很庆幸我们的行程安排允许我们把徒步推迟一天——这真的太值得了,我们非常感谢她一直关注着我们徒步时的天气情况。我强烈推荐锡安探险公司(Zion Adventures)、惠特尼(Whitney)这位向导,以及冬季徒步。这是一次令人难忘的体验!
