点评:Here are some tips for you if you decide to visit the Dino Monument on the Utah side (which is better than the Colorado side).
My family of 4 (teens 19 and 17) really enjoyed the park. We arrived on May 30th and decided to hike the Hog Canyon and Box Canyon around 4PM. I would highly recommend hiking at this time or later. These hikes will be mostly in the shade after 4PM, which is nice because it can get really hot during the day. WATCH OUT FOR POISON IVY on the Hog Canyon Trail. There are signs that show you what it looks like so you can avoid it. Only a few areas that have it and it is easily available. You will see some wild orchids on this hike which was a nice surprise. There are restrooms in this area as well.
We went back on May 31 to visit the quarry area. Make sure to be here at 8am before the crowds show up and the heat of the day begins. When you get to the tram located behind the visitor center,ride it up to the quarry and hike down the Fossil Trail. Don’t go to fossil quarry right away since everyone else will; start the hike. If you ride the tram up and start the hike from the top, it is a nice leisurely stroll down hill. If you decide to start the Fossil Trail from the bottom you will have to hike up hill in the heat. Once you hike down, ride the tram back up again (or drive your car up) and then go to the quarry, which is inside and out of the heat!

我们一家四口(一个19岁,一个17岁)非常喜欢这个公园。我们于5月30日到达,决定在下午4点左右徒步穿越野猪峡谷和盒子峡谷。我强烈建议在这个时间或更晚一点出发。下午4点之后,徒步路线大部分时间都在阴凉处,这很方便,因为白天可能会很热。在野猪峡谷步道上要注意毒藤。那里有指示牌标明毒藤的样子,方便您避开。毒藤只有少数几个地区有,而且很容易找到。在这次徒步中,您会看到一些野生兰花,这真是一个惊喜。该地区也设有洗手间。
我们于5月31日再次前往采石场区。请务必在早上8点到达,以免人群聚集,天气开始变得炎热。到达游客中心后面的缆车后,乘坐缆车前往采石场,然后沿着化石小径徒步下山。不要马上去化石采石场,因为其他人都会去;开始徒步吧。如果您乘坐缆车上山,然后从山顶开始徒步,下山的路途会非常悠闲。如果您决定从山脚开始化石小径,那么您就不得不冒着酷暑徒步上山。下山后,再乘坐缆车上山(或者开车上山),然后前往采石场,采石场就在室内,远离酷暑!
如果这些建议对您有帮助,请告诉我。
