Stumbled Onto the NCA
San Pedro Riparian National Conservation Area的点评
点评：Our experience at San Pedro Riparian NCA is completely different than anything I've read on TripAdvisor. We were driving from the Coronado National Memorial to Tombstone when Hubby slammed on the brakes near Charleston after we spotted a rickety one-lane bridge hiding behind overgrowth. The bridge was long since closed to vehicle traffic, but there was a gravel parking lot adjacent to it and people were roaming around, so we stopped to check it out.
Turns out that this area of the 57,000-acre SPRNCA is the site of the 1846 Battle of the Bulls, a comical event that occurred when the Mormon Battalion was returning from the Mexican border north along the San Pedro River and was charged by a group of wild bulls, which turned into the battalion's only major battle. I was amused first but then intrigued because, after two days of traipsing around southern Arizona, this was the first evidence I've seen that water exists. The San Pedro was dried up in December to merely a 4-foot-wide trickle - but living water nonetheless.
I was fascinated to learn that SPRNCA is also the site of fossils and a plethora of artifacts with archaeological/historical significance. Digging or searching for them is banned. We didn't have time to hike, but this spot was worth the pitstop.

翻译：我们在 San Pedro Riparian NCA 的体验与我在 TripAdvisor 上读到的任何内容都完全不同。当我们从科罗纳多国家纪念馆开车前往墓碑镇时，丈夫在查尔斯顿附近发现了一座摇摇欲坠的单车道桥隐藏在茂密的灌木丛后，猛踩了刹车。这座桥早已禁止车辆通行，但旁边有一个碎石停车场，人们在周围闲逛，所以我们停下来看看。
事实证明，占地 57,000 英亩的 SPRNCA 区域是 1846 年公牛之战的发生地，这是一场滑稽的事件，发生在摩门教营沿着圣佩德罗河从墨西哥边境返回时，遭到一群野牛，这成为该营唯一的一场重大战斗。我先是觉得好笑，但后来又很感兴趣，因为在亚利桑那州南部闲逛了两天后，这是我第一次看到水存在的证据。圣佩德罗河在 12 月干涸，只剩下一条 4 英尺宽的细流，但仍然是活水。
我很着迷地了解到 SPRNCA 也是化石和大量具有考古/历史意义的文物的所在地。挖掘或寻找它们是被禁止的。我们没有时间徒步旅行，但这个地方值得一去。
