点评:I genuinely believe that this was a life changing experience. I am seriously considering a career in field ecology or geology because of it (I know it’s not paleontology but it’s still that outdoorsy type work). Previously I was hesitant to change my major to geology or field ecology for personal reasons, but now I am certain. I loved learning everything about Egg Mountain and the maiasaura, I absorbed all of that information like a sponge. I didn’t tire at all while digging for bones all day. I potentially found a huge bone beneath a bunch of shale (I think shale?). But I feel the most important part was the crew. They were the most kind and genuine employees I’ve ever met. It wasn’t just surface-level customer service, I felt like I was making friends. The entire crew present on that day was amazing, but I’d like to especially point out Jacks and Max. They were hilarious and friendly and were a highlight of the experience, I was a bit sad to leave actually. Anyone even slightly considering coming to this place for a tour MUST try it!

翻译:我真心觉得这是一次改变人生的经历。正因如此,我开始认真考虑从事野外生态学或地质学方面的工作(我知道这跟古生物学不一样,但也是户外工作)。之前因为一些个人原因,我对转专业到地质学或野外生态学犹豫不决,但现在我确信无疑了。我非常喜欢学习关于蛋山和迈亚龙的一切,我像海绵一样吸收着所有信息。整天挖掘化石,我一点也不觉得累。我可能在一堆页岩(我猜是页岩?)下面发现了一块巨大的骨头。但我觉得最重要的是工作人员。他们是我见过的最友善、最真诚的员工。他们提供的不仅仅是表面的客户服务,我感觉自己像是在和他们交朋友。那天在场的所有工作人员都很棒,但我尤其想提一下杰克斯和麦克斯。他们风趣幽默,热情友好,是这次经历的一大亮点,说实话,离开的时候我还有点舍不得。任何哪怕只是稍微考虑过来这里旅游的人,都一定要来试试!
