Enyanisweni, umoya obandayo ubetha ubuso bakho njengoko udibanisa phantsi kwentaba ekhephukile yinto enhle kakhulu. Emva koko, ukwakha iqhwa leqhwa elikufutshane neendlela ezinamaqhwenga amakhulu amakhulu ezigidi zeminyaka ubudala. Kulungile, ngoko kukho izinto ezininzi ezonwabileyo zokwenza ezinyangeni zasebusika. Ngenhlanhla, ilizwe lethu linikeza ezinye zeendawo ezintle kakhulu ukuba zenze oku: iipaki zelizwe.
Zonke iipaki zelizwe zifanelwe ukutyelela, kodwa ezimbalwa zicela ukuba zihambele ebusika. Ezi ipaki zinikela ngembono oyingqalileyo yomhlaba wabo kunye nemisebenzi yonyaka ukwenzela ukuzonwabisa lonke intsapho. Ukusuka kolwandle olwandle lwaseMpuma ukuya kwiintaba zentshonalanga, iipaki zelizwe ezilandelayo zizona zilungileyo kakhulu ezilungileyo zokubusika kwebusika.

Le paki kazwelonke iyaqatshelwa kakuhle ngokubandakanya izilwanyana ezintathu ezihlukeneyo kakhulu: ihlathi elincinci kunye neentyatyambo zasendle zasendle, ihlathi elipholileyo, kunye nolwandle oluqingqiweyo lwe-Pacific. Kodwa kunokuba uhambele emahlathini ngexesha lonyaka owomileyo, tyelela i- Olympic National Park ebusika ngenxa yokuzimela ezintathu.
Thatha ugu lolwandle lwePacifi. Ebusika, inika umdla ovuyisayo ngamagagasi amakhulu amakhulu. Ungamangalisi ukubona imithi efana neDouglas, iifolo kunye nemisedare ephoswe ngeenxa zonke elwandle njengoko zihlanjululwe imilambo ngexesha lemvula. Isandi kakhulu? Musa ukoyika; unokwazi ukujonga intshukumo ukusuka kwi-bluffs kufuphi neKalach Lodge, i-cooest uhlala ngexesha lobusika.
Amahlathi ngokwawo afika ebomini emva kwexesha lexesha emva kwemvula yasebusika kubangele i-mosses, i-lichens kunye nemithi ukuba ipaphe ngokuhlaza. Ngamaqondo okushisa ngokuqhelekileyo kwiminyaka engama-30 no-40 kwiindawo eziphantsi kwepaki, iindwendwe zivakalelwa ukuba zithinteke emoyeni, kodwa ziziva zikhululekile ukuzonwabisa.
Ukuba ulwandle olusendle kunye nehlathi elimangalisayo alaneleyo, iOlimpiki inomnye ummandla onikezelayo: Iphepho iRosege, elibizwa ngokuba yimimoya yalo ebusika. Le ndawo yintaba inikezela indawo efanelekileyo yokukhwela i-skiing, i-snowboarding, i-sledding, i-tubing, i-cross-country-skiing, kunye ne-snowshoeing.

Ukukhupha Hlola. I-Ice skating? Hlola. Uhambo lokuhamba nge-ski-cross-country? Ewe, unayo loo nto. I-Yosemite National Park imane nje ihamba ngokugqithiseleyo kubathandi bezemidlalo ebusika.
Eminye intsapho eyonwabileyo, balethe abantwana kwi-rink yangaphandle ye-skating rink e-Yosemite Valley. Isithethe eYosemite ukususela nge-1930s, i-rink i-ice ephantsi kweHlome Dome kunye neGlacier Point inika ithuba elihle. Nangona kungaphandle, intsapho iya kuhlala ishushu ngomphetho womlilo wangaphandle okanye ngaphakathi kwitora kunye necocoa eshushu kunye nefuthe elifudumeleyo.
Ifumaneka entliziyweni yepaki yindawo endala ye-skiing in the California. Ukususela maphakathi noDisemba ukuya kuMashi, indawo ye-Badger Pass Ski inikezela indawo yokuphuka kwe-skiing, ukukhuphuka kwebhola, ukukhwela kwekhephu, ukukhwela kwe-snowing, kunye ne-skiing. Ukususela kwi-Badger Pass, iindwendwe ziyakonwabela ngaphezu kweekhilomitha ezili-90 zomzila ophawulwe kunye neekhilomitha ezili-25 zomzila olungiselelwe umatshini wokuhamba ngesantya. Ukusuka ekuphumeni kwentsuku enokuthula ukuya kwixesha lokuhamba ebusuku, uYosemite unikela ngokufudumala.
Isizathu Sokuba Ufanele Uhambe: Uyakuzonwabisa ukuqhubela entabeni.

Ukuba ukhathele ukukrola umzila wakho wokuhamba kunye nokubopha abantwana kwiinqwelo zabo zekhephu, i- Biscayne National Park yindlela ekuphumayo oyifunayo. Le paradesi yamanzi inika imozulu efudumeleyo, imidlalo yamanzi, kunye nokufudumala kwelanga kude nabantu beqhwa kunye nesimo sezulu esineqhinga. Kwaye phakathi kweDisemba kubonisa ukuqala kwexesha laseKlorida elomileyo ngoko lixesha elifanelekileyo lokutyelela!
Amaphesenti ama-5 kuphela kweli paki ngumhlaba ke ngoko ulungele iholide epholileyo kunye neyeziza. Kufezekileyo kwabo bafuna ukuphumla elangeni kunye nabanye abafuna iindawo zokuphila kwamanzi. Indlela ephakamileyo yokutyelela ipakini yindawo yokuhamba ngomkhosi. Ukuhamba kwisikhephe esingaphantsi kweeklasi, abakhenkethi banokungena kwihlabathi elingezantsi baze badibanise neentlobo ezingaphezu kwe-325 zeentlanzi, i-shrimp, i-crabs, i-lobster e-spiny, neentaka.
Abanye bajonga ukuba bahambe ngokukhawuleza bafanele bahlole iintlobo ezahlukahlukeneyo zokuhamba ngeenqanawa kunye neendwendwe ezihamba nge-snorkeling. Ininzi ijikeleze iiyure ezintathu, nangona ukhenketho lwe-scuba diving lide kakhulu. Esikhundleni sokutshatyalaliswa kwimozulu yokushisa kaDisemba kunye neentshontsho, ufika uhlambe kunye neenkwenkwezi zeenkwenkwezi ezinentlanzi, intlanzi ephuzi, i-manatees, i-angelfish, kunye nokunye.
Akukho mntu uthi awukwazi ukuya ekampini okanye ukubhukuda ngoDisemba, ngoko ulahlekelwe yi-Gortex kwaye udibanise kwi-suit ye-diving suit ukuze ubalekele ubusika obuhluke kakhulu.

Ukuguguleka kwemvelo kunceda ukudala i- Bryce Canyon National Park , enye yeepaki ezithandekayo kwilizwe. Izidalwa zentlabathi enkulu, ezibizwa ngokuba yi-hoodoos, zitsala ngaphezu kweenyanga ezizigidi zindwendwe. Kodwa ukuba ezi ndwendwe zingaboni zigqutywe ngekhephu, zilahlekile into enhle ngokwenene.
I-hoodoos imela njengezakhiwo ezinkulu kwiidolophu ezinkulu. Ezi zakhiwo ezinemibala enombala kunye nepinki zikwenza uzive ngathi uye wabuyela ngexesha xa izidalwa zokuqala zazulazula amazwe. Yaye imibala yabo iphakanyiswa kuphela xa iindawo ezinobumba, ikhephu elimhlophe likhanya.
Ukuhamba ngeenxa zonke ngeBryce Canyon kuyinto ebalulekileyo ebusika. Ngabakhenkethi abambalwa, umntu unokuziva uxolo lwendalo ngelixa zihamba ngeendlela. Enyanisweni, maxa wambi ingxolo kuphela evezwe yiqhwa elingaphantsi kweebhotile zakho. Ukukhangwa kwepaki eyaziwayo, iBryce Amphitheatre, inikeza ukuhamba kweentsuku ezipheleleyo kwaye ziphawulekayo - njenge-Thor's Hammer kunye neSilent City - zinemibala emininzi kunezinye iinyanga.
Ngaphandle kokuhambahamba ngeendlela, ipaki inikezela indawo yokudabula i-ski and crossing. I-Skiers yazo zonke izakhono zingaphumelela ngamahlathi, amahlathi e-ponderosa ipine, kunye ne-Bryce Canyon. Kungakhathaliseki ukuba ukhetha njani ukutyelela ipaki, ubuhle buya kukushiya ungathethi.

Iintaba ze-Rocky zikhonza njengendawo ephawulekayo ebusika. Unqabile ngekhephu eliqhekezayo, ukubeka nje, iintaba ziphefumula. Isixa sokuqoqa kwekhephu ngokwenene siyahluka ngokubanzi kwiNtaba yeSizwe yeRoyy . Icala lasentshonalanga yepaki linokuqokelelwa ngokugqithiseleyo kwezinto ezimhlophe xa uhlangothi lwempuma luhlala lufana nekhephu elimhlophe. Kwaye le nto inikezela ngeentlobo zemisebenzi kwiindwendwe.
Abantu beeminyaka yonke banokufumana into ejabulisayo yokwenza eHidden Valley. Iqhwa elincinci lixubha amatye kunye nemithi edala indawo ekhuselekileyo neyolonwabo. (Kodwa qho rhoqo ujonga indawo ukuze uqinisekise ukuba ukhuselekile kubantwana!) Intlambo yenza ukuba umntu azive nje njengabantwana kwakhona kwaye ngokuqhelekileyo ngumdlalo wezinto zokulwa kweqhwa, ugibela kuma-toboggans, kunye nabakhi be-snowman.
Ukuba unesidingo sokukhawuleza, intloko ukuya kwicala elingasentshonalanga yepaki ye-snowmobiling. Ukwelula kweekhilomitha ezimbini ze-North Supply Access Trail idibanisa idolophu yaseLwandle oluLwandle ukuya kwinkqubo yeeNtaba zeSizwe ezikufutshane nepaki. Yindawo enhle yokukhwela!
I-Parky Mountains National Park nayo enye yeepaki ezimbalwa ezenza ukuba iinkampu kunye nokubuyela emva kweenkampu zithengise ngexesha lebusika. I-Aspenglen, i-Longs Peak, kunye ne-Timber Crook e-campground zivuliwe unyaka wonke, kodwa gcinani nikhumbula ukuba akukho ndawo yamagumbi okuhlala emanzini ebusika. Ukuba uziva unobomi ngokucinga nje ngokulala ekhephu, ungakhathazeki. Unokuyonwabela imisebenzi yasebusika yokweqa, ukukrazula, kunye nokukhwela i-ice, kodwa jonga kwelinye leendwendwe ezininzi okanye amahotele azungeze ipaki.

Unokumangaliswa ukubona ukuba ipaki yesizwe enye yesithathu yamanzi iya kwenza uluhlu oluhle kakhulu lwebusika. Kodwa i-Voyageurs National Park inikezela ngamava ekhethekileyo ebusika.
Isizathu esona sizathu sokuthi le paki iya kuhlala ihamba ngaphantsi ngenxa yokuba yipaki yelizwe kuphela ngaphandle kwendlela. Ingenelo epakini yinqanawa okanye i-floatplane eRaily Lake, kodwa ebusika ivakalelwa ngendlela eyakhayo. Emva kokuba amanzi aphephe, abahanjayo baya kuqhuba imoto yabo kwi-ice-road ye-7-miles!
I-Voyageurs ivumela ukuba mhlawumbi umsebenzi wobusika obunzima kakhulu: i-snowmobiling. Iipaki ezininzi, njengeJapan Park National Park , zisemfazweni eqhubekayo malunga nemingcele yekhethi . Abachasayo bathi amabhola e-snowmobiles akagcini nje ukulimaza ubuhle bemvelo yamapaki kodwa kwakhona ayichaphazele nakwizilwanyana zasendle. Kodwa kwi-Voyageurs, abathandekayo beqhwa le-snowmobile banokuzonwabisa nemizila emine ekhethekileyo eyi-110 eekhilomitha ze-snowy fun.
Mhlawumbi eyona nto ibalulekileyo ebusika imisebenzi le paki iphinda ihambelane nobuninzi bamanzi azungezile. Ukuloba i-Ice yindlela eyahlukileyo yokuchitha imini kodwa enye inika amava athile. Enoba ujongene nokuhlala uzinzile ukuloba wedwa okanye uhleka kunye nabahlobo, ipaki ineehektare ezingama-84 000 zamanzi ukuba zithathe into enjalo.

Ukugqibela kukaDisemba ukuya kuMatshi kuya kuba yithuba elifanelekileyo lokutyelela le paki kazwelonke. Ngoba? Kwenzeka ukuba yithuba elihle lokubukela i-whale. Masibhekane nayo, sibone i-whale ehlaseleyo imsila yayo enkulu emanzini iyakubetha nayiphi na umdlalo weNintendo oyifumana kwiKrismesi.
Amanzi azungeze iItlands Islands National Park ahlala kwiintlobo ezininzi zeentlobo zezilwanyana zaselwandle ezinjengeemikhomo, ihlengethwa, kunye ne-porpoise. Akukho ndawo kwilizwe uya kuba nethuba lokubona izidalwa ezimangalisayo njengegrey, eluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, i-backpack, i-minke, i-sperm kunye ne-pilot whales, i-orcas kunye needonphin. Isiko leswendwendwe sepaki sinomkhunyuli ngeetelesiksi ukuba ukhetha ukubheka imikhomo emhlabeni. Kodwa ukujonga ngokuthe xaxa kweemikhomo kunokwenzeka kwiinqanawa zoluntu zokubuka iilwandle okanye izikebhe ezizimeleyo.
Ipaki yenziwe ziziqithi ezihlukeneyo ezintlanu: i-Anacapa, iSanta Cruz, iSanta Rosa, i-San Miguel, neSanta Barbara. Kwaye bonke banikezela umhlaba ocebileyo wezilwanyana zasendle, iintyatyambo, izityalo kunye nemibono emangalisayo yokuhlola. Cinga ngesiqithi ngasinye njengelizwe elitsha ukufumanisa kwaye umgcini wendawo, omnye kwisiqithi ngasinye, unokukunceda ekukhokeleni indawo ezilungileyo ukuba uzibone.
Isizathu Sokuba Ufanele Uhambe: Ngenxa yokuba imikhomo iyamangalisa.
