点评:1) 4 miles, 4 hours - tons of stairs up and down, lots of walking.
2) Don't wear a backpack, you don't need it.
3) Do bring a water bottle. You'll need it and can refill at the bathrooms
4) Don't wear a coat, its 55 and humid underground. It was 29 outside when we arrived but down in the cave you'll be hiking.... and you'll have to carry the coat.
5) No hiking shoes needed. 90% of it is paved! or been walked on since 1930.
6) No it's not dirty but there is lots of dirt and rock. Occasionally you'll brush up against rocks but no need to worry about getting dirty.
7) Tall? Yeah, me too. About a dozen spots where you have to just bend over and walk. LOTS OF PLACES to bang your head. Stay low.
8) 250 feet below the surface. After first mile, you're locked in.
9) Worth the walk, but it wore me out. I'd say medium activity level. Lots of out of shape people struggling. Sore calves the next day but all good.
翻译:1) 4英里,4小时——上下楼梯很多,需要走很多路。
2) 不用背背包,你不需要。
3) 带个水壶。你会需要的,而且可以在洗手间补充水分。
4) 别穿外套,地下温度55华氏度(约13摄氏度)而且很潮湿。我们到达时外面是29华氏度(约零下2摄氏度),但在洞穴里你要徒步……而且你得背着外套。
5) 不需要登山鞋。90%的路段都是铺好的!或者从1930年起就有人走过。
6) 不脏,但有很多泥土和石头。偶尔你会碰到石头,但不用担心弄脏。
7) 个子高?嗯,我也是。大约有十几个地方你必须弯腰行走。有很多地方会撞到头。尽量保持低姿态。
8) 位于地表以下250英尺(约76米)。走完第一英里后,你就彻底被困住了。
9)值得一走,但累得我筋疲力尽。我觉得运动量中等。很多体能欠佳的人都走得很吃力。第二天小腿有点酸痛,但总体来说还好。
