IColorado inikeza amawaka eekhilomitha ezihamba ngeendlela zokuhamba: ixesha elide, elifutshane, elilula, eliqinileyo, eliqhelekileyo, elincinane, elinobuchule kunye nenja. Abanye baphelele ukujonga ukuguqulwa kwemithi ye-aspen ekwindla, kanti abanye beza kubomi bonke entwasahlobo kunye neentyantyambo zasendle ezimibalabala.
Inene, khetha umzila uze uhambe. IColorado ayiyi kudanisa. Akukho mizila embi.
Kodwa ukuba ufuna i-quintessential experience ye-Colorado-kunye neendawo ezidumeleyo okanye udumo-kukho ukuhamba okumbalwa okuvela kwenye. Le yimiba yeyona ndlela ephawulekayo, iindlela ezenziwa yiColorado. Oko kuthetha ukuba bathathwe ngokugqithiseleyo ngabanye abagijimi, ngoko qaphela; shiya kusasa kwaye ulungiselele ukudibanisa kwentaba. Ewe, sinokufumana iimfesane zezithuthi kwiindlela zethu.

UkuLungisa eLwandle
U-Anthony Pidgeon / Getty Izithombe Lo mzila ufumaneka malunga neekhilomitha ezili-10 ukusuka eGlenwood Springs, okwenza ukuba uhambo oluqhelekileyo lwabahambi abahambela iindawo ezifudumeleyo ezifudumeleyo kwi-Interstate 70.
Umzila ngokwawo ufutshane-nje ngaphezu kwe-2 kunye neekhilomitha ezili-50 ukuya kohambo-kodwa ungakhohliswa. Oku akukona okukhawulezayo-nokungcolileyo, ukuphuma nokuphuma. Umzila weLangle weHlabathi uhambile, unamaqhina kwaye ungathabatha iiyure ezimbini ukuya kwezine, kuxhomekeke kwinqanaba lakho lokuzivocavoca, ixesha lemihla, indlela onokuyenza ngayo ngokuphakama kwendlela ehlala kuyo. Musa ukulifakela ngokukhawuleza. Thatha ixesha lokunyuka ngokukhuselekileyo uze uthathe ixesha lokukhangela echibini le-surreal kunye namanzi aphezulu. Yenza ikhamera enkulu.
Kuphezulu, qhubeka ufike kwiDream Sprouting ngeembono ezongezelelweyo.
Ukunyuka kweLake, ukuhamba ngeekonyana kunye nomlambo, ulinganiswa njengesiqhelo. Ukuba awugqoki izicathulo ezintle kwaye uzilungiselele, kunokuziva kunzima kunokuba. Qinisekisa ukuba uzisa isikhwama esiphezulu ngamanzi amaninzi kunye nezinto eziphuculweyo. Ifowuni yakho ayiyi kusebenza apha.
Njengazo zonke iindawo ezidumileyo zeColorado, i-Hanging Ichibi inokuba yinyani kakhulu, ikakhulukazi kwihlobo lehlobo (nangona livule unyaka wonke kwaye imifudlana echwayitileyo imangalisa nje, nangona le ndlela ihamba ngamandla xa iqhwa neqhwa). I-bet yakho ibhetele kakhulu: Hamba phambili, phambi kokuba izihlwele zivuke, ngoko unokufumana indawo yokupaka kwaye ungene phambi kwe-9 okanye ngo-10 ekuseni xa izihlwele zifika.
Kubalulekile: Musa ukuba "ulandele udoti." Ungangeni emanzini okanye uhambe ngaphesheya kweemithi kwilibi. I-ecosystem yindawo ephosakeleyo kakhulu kwaye inobungozi ukuzisa nayiphi na into engafanelekanga emanzini. Hlonipha, okanye ungavakali.
Le chibi yinto engummangaliso wendalo, umlingo ugxininiswe kumda wecala, eyakhiwe yi-travertine. Izityalo ezihlaza zihlala zijikeleze ngamanzi ahlaza okwesibhakabhaka. Unokulingwa ukuba ufuna ukungena. Musa.
UkuLungisa iLake yiNational Naturalmarkmark.

Ubude bexesha elide
ILanga eliPhezulu kunye neLwandle lwaseChmm. Getty Izithombe / Ethan Welty I-Colorado iyindlu "ezininzi ezine ezine" (iintaba ezide kunama-14,000 inyawo ngaphezu kwinqanaba lolwandle), kodwa i-Longs Peak yenye yezona zidumileyo. Imile imide kwaye kulula ukuyijonga kunye neentaba, ikakhulukazi ukuba u tyelela iNorthern Front Range yaseColorado. Ingaba intaba ende kunazo zonke kwiSizwe seNtaba yeRoyy.
Intaba ye-Longs Peak ithathwa njengebheji yokuhlonipha abantu kunye neendwendwe, kodwa ngokuqinisekileyo akusiyo yonke into. Nangona le yeyona nto idume kakhulu kwiColorado, kwaye iqhutywe kakhulu, ihamba ngokukhawuleza kwaye inzima yokufikelela phezulu kufuneka ishiywe kuphela kubantu abakulungeleyo, kwimpilo enempilo kwaye baxhomekeke ngokupheleleyo kwiindawo eziphakamileyo. Abahambahambayo banamava angaphezu kwama-5,000 kwiindleko zokuphakama kuwo wonke umzila. Oko kuthethwa, akumele uhambe yonke indlela ukuya phezulu. Unokuthatha nje inxalenye yale myuko kwaye ujongene nemibono emihle kunye nomngeni onzima.
I-Trails Peak Trail i-13.6 iekhilomitha kwaye isebenzisa iiyure ezili-14 ukugqiba. Injongo kukunyuka nokuhla kwentaba ngaphambi kwemini (okanye ubuncinci ukusuka phezulu), xa kuqhutywe imvula yamasalela kwaye iya kwenza ingozi ibe yingozi ngakumbi (kwaye ibuhlungu). I-Longs Peak yaziwa ngokuba nombane wayo. Awufuni ukukwazi ukuba uhlangothi lweeLong uqobo. Iyakwazi ukufumana umoya omoya kwaye ifakelwe phezulu, nangona ngo-Agasti.
Oku kuthetha ukuba kufuneka uqale ukunyuka kwakho ngaphambi kokuba ilanga likhuphuke. Qala malunga ne-2 ngomzuzu (kwangoko) kwi-black pit pit; Ufuna ukuzama ukubetha ingqungquthela ngo-10 ngobusuku bokuhamba ebusuku kudala uhlobo oluhlukeneyo lwe-adventure kwaye luzisa ubunzima obongeziweyo. Uya kumangaliswa ngababaninzi abanye abagijimi baphuma ngelo xesha lobusuku. Kuye amava angama-surreal ukubona zonke i-headlamps zikhupha umzila.
Umbono ophezulu ungomnye wamava amangalisayo ebomini bakho. Iimpawu eziphambili zendlela ziquka i-Chasm Lake, i-Keyhole, iGlacier Gorge kunye neembono ze-Parky Mountain National Park.
Nazi ezinye iingcebiso:
Lungisa kakuhle phambi kokunyuka. Nika amanzi amaninzi kwaye utyilise.
Ixesha elifanelekileyo lokwenza i-Longs Peak liphakathi kwe-Julayi ukuya phakathi kweSeptemba, ngenxa yemozulu. Njalo qwalasela iimeko kunye nokuvalwa phambi kokuba uhambe.
Ukuba kunokwenzeka, bhoxisa umzila ngeveki, xa kungabi njengabantu abaxhamlekileyo (kwaye beyingozi; ukugxotha abantu abadlulileyo kwiibhodi kunye nokulinda abanye bangakubeka engozini).
Ukuba ukwesaba iindawo eziphakamileyo, le myuko ayikho kuwe. Akunjalo nakubantwana abancinci.
Qaphela "umkhuhlane we-summit" kunye nokugula okuphezulu.
Musa ukwenza lo mqhubi wedwa.
Ukuba isimo sezulu sibi, musa ukutshintshe inhlanhla yakho. Yihlawule ngokukhawuleza ngokukhawuleza.

Izixhobo ezifudumele zeConundrum
Imithombo yamanzi eConundrum Hot. Umsebenzisi weFlickr uChris Bartle I-Conundrum Hot Springs yindwendwe ethandwayo ekuphumeni kwayo ekude ku-Aspen ephelela ngemithombo emihle eshushu, yemithombo yamanzi: izibini ezimbini eziphambili kunye nezibonda ezine zokubhukuda ezincinci.
Ngenxa yokusetyenziswa ngokugqithiseleyo, kukho intetho yokuvala okanye ukunciphisa imithombo eshushu. Ukuhlonela imvelo, asikhuthazi ukuba sihlambe apha. Kukho imithombo yamanzi ashushu eDolorado eyenzelwe ukubhada, ngaphandle kokubeka ingozi yokubangela ingozi.
Ukunyuka kuya kuthatha uninzi lwemihla yakho, kuba lihamba malunga neekhilomitha ezili-17 ukuhamba ngokujikeleza kunye nobunzima obunokulinganisela (mhlawumbi ubuncinane kunomlinganiselo kwezinye iindawo). Ngenxa yokuba lide kangaka, iindwendwe ezininzi ziyiphula kwiintsuku ezimbini kwaye zenze inkampu kwelinye leenkampu ezikhethiweyo endleleni. Kuthathwa njengesicatshulwa esibi ukugxotha ngaphezulu kwelanga elilodwa, ngenxa yemfuno yeenkampu zeenkampu.
Lindela ukuba uhambe ehlathini, uphakamise intlambo kunye namadlelo. Umzila uza kukuphakamisa phezulu, ukuya kuma-11 200 ukuya phezulu ngaphezu kolwandle. Endleleni, lindela iintyatyambo eziqaqambileyo, ukuphambuka kwemifula, ama-aspen groves, izilwanyana zasendle kunye neentaba.
Lo mzila, kwiMaroon Bells-Snowmass Wilderness, uhlekile kakhulu (kwaye ukhula ekuthandeni), ngenxa yeembono kunye neentshukumo ezifudumeleyo zentwasahlobo, ngoko ke tyelela ngexesha leentsuku zeveki ezihamba phambili.

INtaba uElbert
Umbono ukusuka kwiNtaba ye-Elbert. Getty Images / Mark Lewis Ukuba ukhangele ukuwela esinye "isineti" kwisihlomelo sakho sebhakethi, yenza iNtaba Elbert. Le ngongoma ephezulu kwiColorado. Akusiyo kuphela intaba ephakamileyo yelizwe, kodwa yile nxalenye yesibini ephezulu kwiindawo ezingaphantsi kwama-48.
Ukunyuka (ukunyuka) iNtaba uElbert ngamalungelo okuqhayisa. Uya kumangaliswa ukwazi ukuba akunzima njengokuba kuzwakala. Enyanisweni, uya kujonga rhoqo uhambo lwenkampu ehleliweyo apha. Ukuba unesimo esihle kwaye uceba ngobulumko (oko kukuthi ulungele ukuphakama phezulu), unokunqoba i-Elbert 14,433 iinyawo. Akulungele, kodwa akukona okweqile njengabanye "abane-fourteeners". Sekunjalo, ziqaphele, ngokukodwa uqiniseke ukuba ube phantsi ngaphambi kokuba imvula yomsasa iqhutywe emini kunye nombane ingozi.
Iindlela ezihlanu ezahlukileyo ziya kukukhupha phezulu, zidlulileyo. Iimbono eziphezulu zingabanye. INtaba i-Elbert ayikude neyona dolophu, idolophu yase-Victori ye-Leadville.

IMaroon Bell
I-Colorado Maroon Bells edumileyo. Getty Izithombe / TerenceLeezy I-Maroon Bells, kufuphi ne-Aspen, zimbini zeentaba ezidume kakhulu kwiColorado kunye neembono eziphambili kwilizwe. Akufuneki ukuthetha, lo mhlaba uphawuleka kwaye unokuxakeka.
Kukho iindlela ezininzi ezahlukahlukeneyo zokunyuka iMaroon Bells.
Elula kakhulu : Vuka kusasa (phambi kwe-8 ekuseni) uze uqhube kwi-Maroon Lake nge-$ 10 ngemoto. Hamba ujikeleze elwandle. Lo mzila uvala phakathi kwe-8 ukuya kwe-5 ntambama Emva koko, kuya kufuneka uthathe ibhasi kawonkewonke kwi-echibi.
Elula : I-Maroon Lake Scenic Trail ihamba ngokulula echwebeni. Uhambo olujikelezayo lwamamitha. Usenokufumana iimbono ngaphandle kwesithukuthezi.
Phakathi : Umzila weMaroon Creek awusekho nzima kakhulu, kodwa kudala, okwenza kube lula kubantu abahambahambayo abafuna ukufaka umsebenzi othile baze babone okungaphezulu. Olu hambo olukuloo mlambo u-3.2 ngeekhilomitha nganye.
I-Harder : Abahambahambayo abafuna umngeni kufuneka bathathe iKrater Lake Trail ukuya kwiCroater Lake. Ukukhuphuka kuya kunqabileyo kwaye kunamatye (kuthathwa njengesiqhelo "), kodwa kuhambo olu-3.6 lwama-kilometer olujikelezayo, ngoko ke luhamba usuku olukhulu. Olu hambo luthi lukhulu kunabanye, ngokunjalo, okwenza luyintandokazi yendawo. Siyamthanda iCraater Lake Trail ngokuwa ngenxa yokuba idlula i-aspen grove yegolide.
