Very disappointed in the View from Footbridge

Vernal Fall的点评

点评：We parked fairly easily at the trailhead. Forgot to look for the shuttle which would have saved us a mile walk. We did take it back. From the shuttle to the actual starting point is at least .02 or a little more. Starts out easy.. don’t let the beginning fool you .. it’s .08 mile each way with a 400 foot gain in elevation just to the footbridge. Lots of rocks to pit stop & sit on. Beware if you have younger children because there’s a drop off just about the whole way. We and the majority of others stopped a number of times to just catch our breath.. unless you are very fit & young .. you’ll be stooping too. We only went to the footbridge which was nice, but the view of Vernal falls itself is so little. I wouldn’t even consider a view. The cascades flow under the bridge.. but had I known this was it I would not have done it. Have seen many huge falls with a lot less effort. Going to the top wasn’t an option. There is a water station & bathroom by the footbridge. The hike down is extremely rough on the shins & feet. There’s some stops with a 1/2 wall that offer a good view of the cascades down below. Bring water & depending on time of day a snack or 2 would be good also. I didn’t think of a snack, but it would have helped with my altitude issues. We have traveled a lot and I’ve never had issues before. We were not too far so I did push myself & after refilling my water did help. A light snack would have helped too.

翻译：我们在步道起点处很轻松地停好了车。不过忘了寻找那趟可以省去一英里步行路程的班车，不过返回时我们还是乘坐了班车。从班车停靠点走到真正的起点至少需要0.02英里，甚至还要多一点。路线起初较为平缓……但可别被这表象迷惑——实际上，单程就有0.08英里长，而且到天桥处海拔要上升400英尺左右。沿途有很多石头可以停下来休息。如果有年纪较小的孩子同行，可要格外小心，因为整条路上几乎都有陡峭的悬崖。我们以及大多数人都多次停下来喘口气……除非你体格健壮且年轻，否则也会弯下腰来喘息。我们只走到了人行桥那里，那里倒是不错，但能看到的弗尔纳尔瀑布的景色少得可怜。我甚至都不觉得这能算得上是什么景观。瀑布的水流从桥下流过……不过要是早知道只有这点景可看，我根本就不会来。我以前也见过很多更壮观的瀑布，而且不需要费那么大劲就能看到。要爬到瀑布顶端则根本不可能。人行桥旁边有一个饮水处和洗手间。下山的过程对小腿和双脚来说相当辛苦。沿途有一些设有半堵墙的观景台，可以欣赏到下方的瀑布美景。记得带上水，根据时间不同，带上一两份零食也不错。我当时没想到要带零食，不过它们肯定能缓解因高海拔带来的不适。我们经常旅行，以前从未出现过这种情况。由于距离不算太远，我坚持走完了全程；重新补水后感觉好多了。来点小吃也会有帮助的。
