Sunset was beautiful walking down the 2 mile road to our car in December
Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias的点评
点评:My advice is based on what worked for my group. Wear water proof mid length hiking boots, bring a ton of water and walking poles. You need the poles going uphill in the snow safely.
The December hike through the woods is not super hard for hikers. It’s hilly. There’s more snow at the very top at the grove where it was super cold the day we were there. It was mild at the start and freezing at the grove. Have quality gloves and warm hat that covers your ears for the grove walk.
Note that families tend to separate at the top. Some people want to rest by the bathrooms while others want to walk farther. Cell phones don’t work great up there so come up with a plan to meet up. Would have been nice for the park to add a bulletin board under the baby awnings where people can post old fashion notes for one another!
If you walk down at sunset, take the road and wear a miner’s headlamp. That worked well for us. The sunset was beautiful.
翻译:我的建议是基于我们团队的经验。穿防水的中帮登山鞋,带足水和登山杖。在雪地上坡时,登山杖能确保安全。
十二月的林间徒步对徒步者来说难度不算太高,只是有些坡度。山顶的树林里积雪较厚,我们去的那天那里非常冷。起点比较暖和,到了树林就非常冷了。建议带上保暖的手套和能遮住耳朵的帽子,以便在树林里行走。
注意,到了山顶,家庭成员往往会分开。有些人想在洗手间附近休息,而有些人则想继续往前走。山顶手机信号不太好,所以最好提前计划好集合地点。如果公园能在儿童遮阳篷下设置一个留言板就好了,这样大家就可以贴一些老式的便条互相留言了!
如果日落时分下山,建议走公路,并戴上矿工头灯。我们当时就是这么做的,效果很好。日落景色非常美丽。
