Worth a stop to see the pupfish
Salt Creek Interpretive Trail的点评
点评：Not the most visually dramatic site in a park full of dramatic scenery - but worth the stop to see the pupfish that survive here.
I had wondered if it would be hard to spot the pupfish, especially at mid-day when we stopped here. But they were all over the place in the creek - and very easy to spot.
Pupfish are very small - minnow size. Normally, looking at minnow-sized fish isn't that thrilling for me. But there is something fun about seeing a fish that can survive in the harsh climate of Death Valley. The males can be colorful, and we enjoyed watching one male pupfish defend his territory - chasing away all intruders in a crowded section of the creek.
Our tour book said the hike was 0.8 miles - but walking the full boardwalk loop felt longer than that. It's flat and easy walking on a boardwalk. The terrain doesn't vary that much. If you only have a short time and/or don't feel like hiking the entire boardwalk, I think one can get 80% of the value from the first 10-20% of the walk.

翻译：这不是一个充满戏剧性风景的公园中最具视觉戏剧性的景点 - 但值得停下来看看在这里生存的鳉鱼。
我想知道是否很难发现鳉鱼，尤其是在我们停在这里的中午。但它们在小溪里到处都是——而且很容易被发现。
鲉鱼非常小 - 鲦鱼大小。通常，看着小鱼大小的鱼对我来说并不那么令人兴奋。但是看到一条鱼可以在死亡谷的恶劣气候中生存，这很有趣。雄性可能色彩斑斓，我们喜欢看一只雄性鳉鱼捍卫自己的领地——在小溪拥挤的区域赶走所有入侵者。
我们的旅游手册上说这次徒步旅行是 0.8 英里——但走完整条木板路环路感觉比这要长。它平坦而轻松地走在木板路上。地形变化不大。如果您只有很短的时间和/或不想徒步走完整条木板路，我认为您可以从前 10-20% 的步行路程中获得 80% 的价值。
