America is home to 59 national parks, spread across 27 states. That's a lot to see, but what if you only have one day? Here's a one-day guide to 12 U.S. national parks, curated from MacGillivray Freeman's film—National Parks Adventure.
美國坐擁 59 座國家公園,橫跨 27 州。那真的有很多可以看,但如果你只有一天怎麼辦?以下是 12 座美國國家公園的一日遊攻略,取材自 MacGillivray Freeman 的影片《美國國家公園探險紀行》。
Glacier National Park in Montana has 700 miles of trails through its rugged mountains. From Hidden Lake Overlook, you can get a great view of Bearhat Mountain, shaped like a bear's hat.
位於蒙大拿州的冰川國家公園內有 700 英里的步道,行經公園內崎嶇的山岳。從隱湖展望點,你可以擁有欣賞熊帽山的絕佳視野,熊帽山形狀看起來就像一隻熊的帽子。
Check out the hoodoos in Utah's Bryce Canyon—huge pillars of rock ranging from person-sized to 10-story-building-sized.
沉浸在猶他州布萊斯峽谷的魔法中吧--公園內石柱矗立,從人身高度到十層樓高的都有。
And while you're in Utah, head to Canyonlands National Park to watch the sunrise from Mesa Arch. With its canyons and gorges carved from the Colorado River, it's like stepping onto a different planet.
在猶他州的時候,前往峽谷地國家公園,從梅薩拱門欣賞日出美景。科羅拉多河切割出層巒疊嶂的峽谷,彷彿踏上不同星球。
Redwood has some of the tallest trees—on this planet, anyway. Take a road trip down the California coastal highway.
紅木國家公園矗立著最高的樹木--至少是我們這個星球上最高的。順著加州沿海的高速公路來趟公路旅行吧。
Keep going southeast, and you'll hit Yosemite—land of valleys and waterfalls. It's where you can see the iconic Half Dome and his buddy, El Capitan.
繼續往東南方走,你會看到優勝美地國家公園--溪谷與瀑布之地。在這你能看到具代表性的半圓頂,還有他的夥伴酋長岩。
This is a picture of a rock. And this is Pictured Rocks National Park in Michigan. It stretches along Lake Superior, the biggest and deepest of the Great Lakes. Its clear water is great for scuba diving.
這是一顆岩石的照片。而這是位於密西根州的岩景國家湖岸。公園沿著蘇必略湖延伸,這座湖是五大湖中最大也最深的湖泊。清澈的湖水是潛水的絕佳場所。
Check out the bears in Alaska's Katmai National Park. It's open all year, but your best bear-watching windows are July and September.
也別忘了看看阿拉斯加卡特邁國家公園的熊。公園全年無休,但最佳觀熊時機是七月和九月。
Watch out for gators. You're in the Florida Everglades, and you're on a boat. I mean, you can slough slog through the marsh, but the boat option seems pretty good.
小心短吻鱷出沒。你現在身處佛羅里達的沼澤地國家公園,坐在一條船上。我是說,你也可以徒步穿越沼澤濕地,但乘坐船隻似乎也是非常棒的選擇。
Devils Tower in Wyoming stands 867 feet, base to summit, with climbing routes of all difficulties. Climbers are asked to stay off in June to respect the ceremonies of the Plains tribes.
懷俄明州的魔鬼塔從底部到頂峰高 867 英尺,且攀爬路徑險阻困難。為尊重北美大平原上部落的儀式,登山客在六月時會被限制禁止進入。
So while you're in Wyoming, try Grand Teton in the Teton Mountains. If you're lucky, from Oxbow Bend, you can spot wildlife like the mighty pronghorn or journey through the Yellowstone Caldera. This is considered an active volcano with crazy geothermal events like Old Faithful Geyser and multicolored thermal pools of pigmented bacteria.
而你在懷俄明州時,也記得要造訪大提頓山脈中的大提頓峰。幸運的話,你可以從牛軛彎看見野生動物的蹤跡,像是強壯的叉角羚,或也可以一路旅行到黃石火山口。此座火山被認為是座活火山,有活躍的地熱活動,像是老忠實間歇泉,還有由有色細菌產生的色彩斑斕的地熱池。
And finally, you've got to spend a day at the Grand Canyon. On South Rim, check out the view from Yavapai Point. Then take a mule ride down into the mother of all canyons.
最後,你一定要在大峽谷待上一整天。在南緣的牙瓦派角一覽看出去的風景。接著乘著騾子一路走過這峽谷之母。
