点评:This was a grade C campground. Wildcat Mountain is so named because the locals killed a wildcat there many years ago. The campsite we stayed in, #8, was directly across from the Park Office and was not secluded at all. We did see some other campsites that were secluded, but they all seem pretty close together, so if you're looking for privacy, search elsewhere. But the place was neat and clean, and the toilets were not bad at all. Not many bugs in June, in the toilets, and the toilets did not smell bad. The good thing about camping across from the Park Office is you get to use their beautiful facilities when they are open. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Just by sheer happenstance we heard on the radio that Natural Bridge State Park was in the area and it sounded cool, so we drove over there to see it and it's so beautiful! The Overlook Point here at Wildcat is also very beautiful and easy to get to. We walked most of the Starlight trail, until it got overgrown, but it was nice and level and an easy hike. The Amphitheater...whoa. This was definitely the most rustic one I've ever seen so far. And I can't imagine one that would be more rustic than this one. It's not bad, it's just small, the seats tip forward, the stage is barely a stage, I don't see how they can possibly hold productions on it, but what do I know? I'm not in the theater--I'm sure they make it work somehow. It's very intimate and cozy, let's put it that way. We came across a gigantic moth at the base of a tree and it turned out to be a Luna Moth, which after it emerges from its cocoon doesn't have mouth parts, so it can't eat! It lives a week to breed, and then dies! All in all, it's not worth a very far drive, but if you're in the general area and want to camp, it's OK. At least it was not noisy at night. Some really nice campgrounds have lots of nice features but are super loud in the evening. This one was quiet, and you could see tons of stars.
翻译:这是一个C级露营地。野猫山之所以得名,是因为当地人多年前在那里猎杀了一只野猫。我们住的8号营地就在公园办公室正对面,一点也不僻静。我们确实看到过一些比较僻静的营地,但它们似乎都挨得很近,所以如果你想要私密性,还是另寻他处吧。不过,这里干净整洁,厕所也不错。6月份的时候,厕所里几乎没有虫子,而且也没有异味。在公园办公室对面露营的好处是,你可以在他们开放的时候使用漂亮的设施。工作人员非常友好,乐于助人。我们偶然从收音机里听到天然桥州立公园就在附近,听起来很酷,所以我们开车去了那里,那里真的太美了!野猫山的观景台也非常漂亮,而且很容易到达。我们沿着星光步道走了大部分路,直到杂草丛生,但步道很平坦,很轻松。露天剧场……哇。这绝对是我见过最质朴的露天剧场。我想象不出还有比这更质朴的了。它还不错,就是小了点,座位向前倾斜,舞台也勉强算得上舞台,我不明白他们怎么可能在上面演出,但我又能知道些什么呢?我又不在剧场里——我肯定他们肯定能想办法把它弄好。这么说吧,它非常私密舒适。我们在一棵树下发现了一只巨大的蛾子,原来是一只月蛾,它破茧而出后没有口器,所以不能吃东西!它要活一周才能繁殖,然后就死了!总而言之,不值得开车去很远的地方,但如果你在附近,想露营的话,还是可以的。至少晚上不会很吵。有些很棒的露营地有很多不错的设施,但晚上会非常吵闹。这个露营地很安静,而且可以看到无数的星星。
