b*******e 发帖数: 6482 | 2 我九月底去的时候那边连续下了一周雨,爬的时候也是刚刚下完暴雨,身处云雾之中,什么风景都没
有,石头巨滑,但这条路真的很棒。整座山里只有我一个人。羡慕你有人拍照,我只能靠头顶一个
GoPro,走到一半还没电了。
话说Ranger说每年都有混蛋穿拖鞋、带老人小孩、不看天气、不做准备就往山上冲,然后在半山腰傻逼
了求救。雨中上Precipice是Acadia第二难。第一难是雨中下Precipice,我到山顶上考虑过但最后
没敢,下来时候走的是山背后的Beechcroft

虽然我早知道Ansel Adams是什么人, 但好多年过去了, 我却一直没好奇大師那幅画照
的是什么地方. 一直到前些年山爬的多了, 也多次在High Sierra上的John Muir
Wilderness及Ansel Adams Wilderness里背负健行, 才开始慢慢的对会以他们來命名一
个wilderness的这兩个人多了一些了解及敬仰, 也才去找出了那幅画照的地点, 是加州
Sequoia 国家公园里的一个一万尺高山上的湖泊Precipice Lake.
终於, 在年度的backpacking计划里, 我把寻访Precipice Lake的路线列入了行程, 也
早早的拿到了permit. 从Sequoia NP的Mineral King登山口, 往北走到Bearpaw Meadow
, 再转向东沿著High Sierra Trail而行. 两天半之後, 我们一行山友8人, 终於到达了
这个画中的湖泊.... 阅读全帖 |

r******h 发帖数: 809 | 11 Precipice Trail is indeed so-so. I brought my parents up without any problem.
But I turned around at the bottom of Angel's landing (end of west rim trail
if that is the name of the approach). There was patch ice on trail when I
tried, and the condition might be better in summer. But one thing I am sure
is, it is more exposed than precipice trail. It is not just about strenous.
West rim trail itself is nice already. So even if you can't reach top of
angel's landing, you won't get disappointed. |

Precipice每年都有七八岁小孩或者穿拖鞋上去的,几年才会死一个
(今年七月刚死一个)。
Diable必须有向导(而且还死贵),08年建成,目前为止死亡人数为0。
