Ladder Canyon Trail的点评
点评:On 05/28/23, trail is “closed” at the top, so after going up the ladder path you must come back down the same way. I am guessing that it will probably reopen sometime soon.
How to find the entrance to the ladders and slots:
Walking from the trailhead, the sides of the rock are vertical from the ground to the sky, see photo. Keep looking to your left as you walk. There is a triangle hole in the rock. Then there is a pile of rocks; that section is not a vertical wall from ground to sky. Enter thru the pile of rocks by part walking / part scrambling. Now your found the start of the ladder section without arrows 😃
On 5/28/23, we went across the rocks high above the ladder instead of using the 1st ladder. Both would be challenging for a small child bc it needed a pretty long reach.
Coming back down the 3rd to last ladder would also be challenging for a small child bc of the reach that it involves. You have to feel for some of the toeholds rather than see thos toeholds.
I read that the ladders often wash away with each heavy rain / flood thru the slots, and are repositioned again by the hiking club. The 3rd to last ladder was short (may have broken earlier in the year bc I saw a piece of ladder elsewhere) which required the climb up and back down of this section requiring toeholds, and other times of year would be easier if the ladder was longer.
I like scrambling and climbing so definitely a fun and memorable hike.
翻译:23 年 5 月 28 日,步道在顶部“关闭”,因此在爬上梯子路径后,您必须原路返回。我猜它可能很快就会重新开放。
如何找到梯子和插槽的入口:
从登山口往前走,岩石的两侧从地面到天空是垂直的,见图。走路时继续向左看。岩石上有一三角孔。然后是一堆石头;该部分不是从地面到天空的垂直墙。部分步行/部分爬行进入岩石堆。现在你找到了没有箭头的阶梯部分的开始😃
23 年 5 月 28 日,我们穿过梯子上方的岩石,而不是使用第一个梯子。两者对于一个小孩子来说都是具有挑战性的,因为它需要相当长的距离。
回到倒数第三个梯子对于一个小孩来说也是一个挑战,因为它所涉及的范围。你必须去感受一些立足点,而不是看到那些立足点。
我读到梯子经常被每次大雨/洪水冲走,然后被远足俱乐部重新定位。倒数第三个梯子很短(可能在今年早些时候坏了,因为我在别处看到了一个梯子)需要在这部分需要立足点才能爬上爬下,如果梯子是一年中的其他时间会更容易更长。
我喜欢攀爬,所以绝对是一次有趣而难忘的徒步旅行。
