点评:The Narrows is one of the most beautiful hikes I've ever done. Check weather conditions before going, as flash floods can occur, and the ranger station will have the latest information.
Hiking/trekking poles and proper water shoes are highly recommended. The water ranges from ankle-deep to waist-high in places, and the rocky riverbed makes for slow going if walking barefoot as I did, but it's well worth the effort.
Towering canyon walls, waterfalls, hanging gardens, and vibrant wildflowers make this feel like a hidden oasis. Keep an eye out for the Zion snail, which is found only in Zion National Park.
The farther you go, the greater the reward. Zion means "City of God," and The Narrows felt like one of its chambers. Beautiful, cold, and unforgettable. If the God of all creation, has a throne on this earth, it would be here!
翻译:“The Narrows”是我走过的最美的徒步路线之一。出发前请务必查看天气情况,因为这里可能发生山洪暴发,而护林站也会提供最新信息。
强烈建议携带徒步杖及合适的涉水鞋。有些地方水深仅及脚踝,有些则深达腰部;由于河床布满岩石,像我这样光脚行走的话进度会相当缓慢,但这一切努力都是值得的。
巍峨的峡谷壁、瀑布以及悬空的花草丛……繁茂的野花让这里宛如一处隐秘的绿洲。务必留意一下“锡安蜗牛”——这种蜗牛仅存在于锡安国家公园内。
越往深处走,收获越多。锡安意为“上帝之城”,而“窄谷”则仿佛是这座城市中的一间密室。美丽、清冷却又令人终生难忘。倘若造物主在人间有王座可坐,那定会是在这里吧!
