点评:Don't let some of these scare you away lile they almost did to me. I traveled with a group of 17 year old Girl Scouts and their moms. This hike was high on their priority list as it involves dogs. In reading the reviews the night before to understand where to find the location and park I was worried that I am too out of shape to do this hike (overweight and lacking upper arm strength). But I wasnt going to let my daughter down. I was also concerned about our footwear (ugg boots and slip on Vessi shoes). There were about 100 people there for the hike. We stayed in the back and I was glad for that because the dogs stayed up front with Enrique. Because there were so many people it made the hike slow to move up the mountain once the front of the pack started on the more difficult parts. This gave me reassurance that I wasn't moving too slow or holding up the people behind us because we were all stuck in a traffic jam moving slowly up the hill. About half way up is where it started to get harder. About three quarter of the way up I was heavy breathing and sweating a little but we would go a couple steps and wait for the people ahead of us so there was time to catch my breath. I had both hands free and that helped tremendously with being able to get up the the steep terrain. When we got to the top it was very rocky and narrow but there were places to stand that felt safe enough to stand and look around and take pictures. I was so invigorating to be up there and take in the beautiful views. The way down was a different path for the first half of the desend and that was a bit of a challenge in is own way. So we would step out of the way and let some faster hikers go around us. Later when we toured the arch by boat it was so awesome to see Mt. Solmar and know we were just at the top of it. So don't let these other reviews scare you away from an amazing adventure.
翻译:不要让这些吓跑你,就像我差点被吓跑一样。我和一群 17 岁的女童子军以及他们的妈妈一起旅行。这次徒步旅行在他们的优先事项中名列前茅,因为它涉及到狗。在前一天晚上阅读评论以了解在哪里可以找到地点和停车场时,我担心自己的身体状况不适合这次徒步旅行(超重且上臂力量不足)。但我不会让我的女儿失望。我也担心我们的鞋子(ugg 靴子和 Vessi 便鞋)。大约有 100 人参加徒步旅行。我们留在后面,我很高兴,因为狗和 Enrique 留在前面。因为人太多了,一旦队伍前面的人开始进入更困难的部分,徒步旅行就会变得缓慢地上山。这让我确信我没有移动得太慢或耽误我们后面的人,因为我们都被困在交通堵塞中,慢慢地爬上山。大约爬到一半时,事情开始变得越来越难。大约走了四分之三的路程,我呼吸沉重,有点出汗,但我们会走几步,等待前面的人,这样我就有时间喘口气。我的双手是空的,这对我爬上陡峭的地形有很大帮助。当我们到达山顶时,那里非常多岩石,很窄,但有地方可以站着,感觉足够安全,可以站着环顾四周,拍照。站在那里欣赏美丽的景色,我感到非常振奋。下山的前半段是一条不同的路,这对我们自己来说也是一种挑战。所以我们会走开,让一些更快的徒步旅行者绕过我们。后来,当我们乘船游览拱门时,看到索尔玛山,知道我们就在山顶,真是太棒了。所以不要让这些其他评论吓跑你,让你错过一次奇妙的冒险。
