加州,加州,獨一無二 第一彈 國家公園

(2018-06-05 23:42:16) 下一個

作為美國人口最多的州,加州擁有

1. 美國本土最高的山 -- Mount Whitney。加州州內有一萬英尺以上的高峰達42座,要登高望遠,隨便挑。

2. 加州擁有,Wait for it,世界陸地最低點,死穀。對,就是那個熱得要死(據說錄得最高氣溫)的地方,不過,早春花開,不要太美麗了(當然,你的運氣要好嘻嘻)。

3. 加州擁有全美最多的國家公園,多達九個。從上麵提到的死穀國家公園,到優山美地,紅樹林國家公園,甚至還有一個Channel Islands國家公園包羅萬象,應有盡有。

Yosemite???s high country, including Tenaya Peak and Clouds Rest, is a breath of fresh air and a sure escape from the crowds at Half Dome. To reach Clouds Rest, often called the "younger brother" of Half Dome, begin at the Tenaya Lake trailhead and keep climbing past massive boulders and a handful of freshwater lakes until you reach the peak. With views of El Capitan, Half Dome and Tuolumne Meadows, it's evident where Clouds Rest gets its whimsical moniker. Photo: Handout

優山美地

Channel Islands National ParkJust off the coast of Ventura lies Channel Islands National Park, a chain of eight islands accessible only by boat. Visitors are treated to a time warp of California's flora and fauna on this chain of eight, largely untouched islands." Photo: MICHAEL MACOR

Channel Islands

Lassen Volcanic National ParkThough Yellowstone is arguably the best-known national park for steaming hydrothermal features, California is home to its own fiery park ??? Lassen Volcanic. The park's jagged peaks hint at its volcanic past, while boiling pools and pits of steaming water continue to enchant visitors and shape the rocky, wildflower-dotted landscape.?  Photo: National Parks Service

The Libbey Tree pales in height when compared to the current reigning tallest tree in the world. That title goes to Hyperion, discovered by amateur naturalists Chris Atkins and Michael Taylor, which measures more than 380 feet high. Photo: Getty Images/Westend61

紅木國家公園

Sequoia and Kings Canyon National ParkSequoia is spectacular whether traversed by foot, car or horseback. Massive trees look tiny compared to the park's craggy peaks and granite domes. If you can take your eyes of the green giants and the towering rocks and look down, you'll find rushing rivers and easily accessible marble caverns.?  Photo: Visalia Times-Delta File, Associated Press
