点评:First, let me say that do not be afraid of this hike and yes it is worth it. I read lots of reviews that said you needed to be an experienced hiker and that it would be best not to take children. I found none of this true as none of us are experienced hikers and we had children with us. We had 4 adults ages 45 to 56 and 4 children ages 9 to 15. None of us are experienced hikers and all with varying levels of activeness. I was the oldest adult and am the most active and have only done 4 to 5 hikes from moderate to strenuous and the youngest child is not active to speak of at all. This hike was moderate and could be done by most healthy adults and children. Do not be afraid to go, the last 1/3 or so of the hike is the most difficult with it being pretty much straight up. There are roots and obstacles to maneuver but that is with any hike. Yes, good shoes. layers of clothing, and water are necessary but I consider that a must with any hike. I agree that it is longer than what is posted, definitely closer to 10 miles. We started at about 11 and finished around 4:30 to 5 depending on stops for photos. You can refill your water bottle at the falls as the water is so cold and refreshing.
翻译:首先,我要说的是,不要害怕这次徒步旅行,是的,这是值得的。我读了很多评论,说你需要成为一名经验丰富的徒步旅行者,最好不要带孩子。我发现这些都不是真的,因为我们都不是经验丰富的徒步旅行者,而且我们带着孩子。我们有 4 个 45 至 56 岁的成年人和 4 个 9 至 15 岁的孩子。我们都不是经验丰富的徒步旅行者,而且每个人的活跃程度都不同。我是年龄最大的成年人,也是最活跃的,只进行过 4 到 5 次从中等到剧烈的徒步旅行,最小的孩子一点也不活跃。这次徒步旅行是中等难度的,大多数健康的成年人和儿童都可以完成。不要害怕去,徒步旅行的最后 1/3 左右是最困难的,因为它几乎是直上直下的。有树根和障碍物需要绕过,但任何徒步旅行都是如此。是的,一双好鞋。多层衣服和水是必要的,但我认为任何徒步旅行都必须如此。我同意,这比公布的要长,肯定接近 10 英里。我们大约在 11 点出发,大约在 4:30 到 5 点结束,具体取决于停下来拍照的时间。你可以在瀑布处补充水瓶,因为水非常冷,令人耳目一新。
