Hey, I'm Cheryl and I am a Utah girl and I've been a teacher for 24 years and today I thought I would give you a little Zion 101 for beginners. I like to travel to new places but a lot of times I know nothing about them. So I'm hoping this video would be helpful to someone who's never been to Zion and I'm hoping my experiences could be helpful to somebody else. I'm gonna try to cover 10 things in 10 minutes so hang in there with me. Okay, the first thing is what exactly is Zion? So Zion is a really really cool Canyon but there's actually divided into four sections. So the main part that people think about is the

嘿，我是謝麗爾，我是猶他州的一個女孩，我已經當了 24 年的老師，今天我想給大家講講錫安的 101 個小故事。我喜歡去新地方旅行，但很多時候我對它們一無所知。是以，我希望這段視頻能對從未去過錫安的人有所幫助，也希望我的經驗能對其他人有所幫助。我將在 10 分鐘內介紹 10 件事，所以請耐心等待。首先，錫安到底是什麼地方？錫安是一個非常非常酷的峽谷，但實際上它分為四個部分。人們所想到的主要部分是

Zion Canyon and it's eight miles and there's at the beautiful Virgin River running through it and these towering Canyon walls up on the side and that's a part you usually hear about but there's also another portion of Zion Canyon that heads out to the east entrance and that's a road you can drive on. It's the

錫安峽谷有 8 英里長，美麗的維爾京河穿流而過，峽谷壁高聳入雲，這是你通常聽說過的部分，但錫安峽谷還有另一部分通往東入口，你可以沿著這條路開車前往。這是

基礎被動語態

Mount Carmel Road and you actually get to go through a really cool tunnel on there and there's some really cool rock formations along that road. Now the other two lesser-known parts are the Kolob Canyons. There's Kolob Canyon which is about a mile away from the Zion Canyon and it's a wilderness area that is you know the trails aren't packed there a lot of sand they're not really well marked but a super cool place to go and then the last one is the Kolob Terrace

在卡梅爾山路上，你可以穿過一條非常酷的隧道，沿路還有一些非常酷的岩層。另外兩個鮮為人知的地方是科洛布峽谷。科洛布峽谷距離錫安峽谷大約一英里遠，是一個荒野地帶，你知道那裡的小路並不擁擠，有很多沙子，也沒有很好的標記，但卻是一個超酷的去處，最後一個是科洛布露臺。

Road which is a drive also a mile away from the main Canyon and so when you visit Zion there are those four sections of the park to visit but the most popular one is Zion's Canyon that's where there's the Angels Landing and the

是以，當您遊覽錫安時，可以參觀公園的四個部分，但最受歡迎的是錫安峽谷，那裡有天使著陸點和峽谷。

Narrows. Next question what is there to do in Zion? Well of course there are the very famous adventure hikes. What I love the most about Zion is that you can go on some legit adventures without backpacking 15 miles in. The very famous

狹路相逢。下一個問題是，錫安有什麼好玩的？當然是著名的探險遠足。我最喜歡錫安的一點是，您無需揹包徒步 15 英里就可以進行一些合法的探險活動。非常有名的

Angels Landing with the cool chain section it's only a five mile hike. It's rigorous but it's only five miles or the Narrows I think when I was younger and didn't know much about it I thought that this was like a day-long trip but it doesn't have to be that way it's only that way if you start from the top and go down to the bottom but most of us locals and visitors we start at the bottom we go on the cool riverside walk and then we get our gears like our water boots and our neoprene socks and our hiking sticks and then we just walk up the river until we want to turn around. A lot of people will go about three miles and then turn around but it's really up to you and we've seen all ages of people hiking the Narrows and the Angels Landing the Narrows super cool amazing hikes but you don't have to be doing those rigorous hikes to enjoy Zion there's also some very nice walks and a couple of our favorites are the riverside walk which is at the end of the canyon and that is just an asphalt trail I wouldn't try pushing a wheelchair up it but a stroller yeah I would do that and it's just a mile each way and you get like a little taste of the Narrows without actually getting in the river and then there's also the

天使著陸點和涼爽的鐵鏈路段只有五英里的徒步路程。但我們大多數當地人和遊客都是從河底開始徒步的，我們沿著清涼的河邊走，然後帶上水靴、氯丁橡膠襪子和登山杖等裝備，沿著河邊一直走，直到我們想掉頭為止。很多人會走大約三英里，然後掉頭，但這真的取決於你，我們看到過不同年齡段的人徒步穿越狹長地帶和天使登陸點，狹長地帶的徒步旅行超級酷，令人驚歎，但你不一定非要做那些艱苦的徒步旅行才能享受錫安的樂趣。我們最喜歡的是峽谷盡頭的河邊步道，那只是一條瀝青小徑，我不會嘗試推輪椅上去，但推嬰兒車是的，我會這麼做。

Weeping Rock which is only like 0.4 miles around trip and beautiful so some great trails right there and then I'm going to tell you one of my little personal favorites that not many people go on but it's just the grotto trail it's just between if I'm on the grotto the Zion visitor center stop it's just right along the road but I mean the thing that's amazing about Zion is you can see the canyon no matter where you're at and so even if you're along the road it's amazing. Next is to just go for a drive or a ride riding the Zion shuttle is fun and the bus drivers do a great job narrating the canyon and it's you know it'll take you about an hour to do the whole loop if you don't get off the shuttle but most people do and they get off and kind of check out what there is at the stops but riding on the shuttle is fun and then if you don't want to ride the shuttle or if you want to in addition you can go at the Zion

哭泣巖（Weeping Rock）的行程只有 0.4 英里，非常漂亮，所以那裡有一些很棒的小徑，然後我要告訴你的是我個人最喜歡的一條小徑，很少有人會去，但它就是石窟小徑，它就在如果我在石窟上，錫安遊客中心站之間，就在公路邊上，但我的意思是，錫安令人驚歎的地方在於，無論你在哪裡，都能看到峽谷，所以即使你在公路邊上，也是令人驚歎的。其次是開車或乘坐錫安穿梭巴士（Zion shuttle）也很有趣，巴士司機會很好地解說峽谷的情況，如果不下車的話，走完整個環路大概需要一個小時，但大多數人都會下車，看看各站都有什麼

Mount Carmel Road and so scenic getting to go through that tunnel and really cool rock formation so a totally different experience than going up Zion

卡梅爾山路風景優美，可以穿過隧道，還有非常酷的岩層，這是與錫安山完全不同的體驗。

Canyon. Now if you really want to get adventurous you can go into the Kolob areas the Kolob Terrace Road is super cool you actually get to see some water there water is kind of scarce in Zion but you get to see water there and it's higher elevation so you're getting away from that hot hot heat if you're here in the summer. And then lastly there's Kolob just the Kolob area of the park which is a fun place to do some adventure hiking and some great hikes where there's just you're right in the middle of some slot canyons so there you go nutshell of what there is to do in Zion. Next up are the shuttles whoo shuttles in one minute I can totally do this okay there's two shuttles you can take there's one in the town of Springdale which is right outside of

峽谷。如果你真的想冒險，你可以去科洛布地區，科洛布露臺路（Kolob Terrace Road）非常涼爽，你可以在那裡看到一些水，錫安的水有點稀缺，但你可以在那裡看到水，而且那裡海拔較高，如果你夏天來這裡，可以遠離炎熱的高溫。最後是科洛布（Kolob），公園內的科洛布地區是一個有趣的地方，您可以在這裡進行探險遠足和一些很棒的遠足活動，這裡就在一些槽形峽谷的中間。接下來是班車，一分鐘就有班車，我完全可以做到這一點，好吧，你可以乘坐兩輛班車，一輛在斯普林代爾鎮，就在錫安郊外。

Zion and that's just to get visitors from the city to the other stop where you can catch a shuttle into the canyon. Zion is so popular now that there's not enough parking at the visitor center for all the visitors so there's lots of paid parking along the street in Springdale and you can just catch the free shuttle and head on into the park. The second shuttle is right from the visitor center and it will take you up Zion Canyon there's nine stops and it runs pretty much the entire year but it's it's mandatory March through

這只是為了把遊客從市區送到另一站，在那裡您可以搭乘班車進入峽谷。錫安現在非常受歡迎，遊客中心的停車位都不夠所有遊客使用，所以斯普林代爾的街上有很多收費停車場，您可以搭乘免費班車進入公園。第二輛班車就停在遊客中心，它將帶您遊覽錫安峽谷，共有九個站點，全年運行，但三月到次年三月必須乘坐。

November now every year it does kind of change depending on visitation but that's a ballpark you can check the website but Zion Canyon is only accessible via shuttle for those months of the year and guests that stay at the lodge they can drive up to the lodge but they can't go past the lodge so even if you are staying in the park you can only go so far oh and you don't need a reservation to ride the shuttle at this time. Next up do you need reservations to visit Zion?

現在每年的 11 月都會根據遊客量發生變化，但這只是一個大概的數字，您可以在網站上查看，但錫安峽谷在一年中的這幾個月只能通過班車進入，住在旅店的遊客可以開車到旅店，但不能經過旅店，所以即使您住在公園裡，也只能走這麼遠。接下來，您需要預訂才能遊覽錫安嗎？

No thank goodness you don't Zion has been going through some major growing pains the last few years holy smokes it's gone up a lot but it's because Zion is amazing and that's why so many people are coming but at this time you don't need a reservation for anything in the park except to do part of Angels Landing you can still do a good portion of the Angels Landing trail without a reservation in fact you can do the first two miles of it it's just the last half mile it's called the hogs back and that's where you're holding on to those chains that's where you need a permit to do that and I'm not even going to tell you when the reservation window opens because it changes every year and I don't want to give you wrong information so my only advice there is to just check the National Parks website a few months before your trip so you kind of know what reservations you need to get and the conditions now if you're thinking about planning a trip to Zion I like said I am going through this at lightning speed but we have a whole playlist of things about Zion so if you want more in depth on anything we have a whole trip planner video that's about an hour long that will walk you through all the details so check that out if you are interested. Next do you have to be a hiker to enjoy Zion? I would say no I think Zion is better if you can go do Angels Landing and the Narrows for sure but just even as you drive through the town of Springdale you will be able to tell that this is a special place I can't believe that as many times as I've been to this park I mean I've been going here since I was a kid I live four hours away from here so this is like a yearly thing it's just majestic to me that the sandstone the sunlight hitting the sandstone hearing the Virgin River everything about Zion is just incredible and getting to see it from the shuttle is cool and getting to see it from the road is cool and even if you only make it to a couple overlooks that's okay too my parents are retired and they're still in really good shape but one of their favorite things to do is just to go along that Zion River walk and so I would say absolutely you can enjoy Zion without being a major hiker. Next is how long should your trip be to Zion? I really think that depends on what you like to do if you're a hiker you could easily spend three or four days in this park going on all the hikes if you're not a hiker I would say you could comfortably do this park in a day or a day and a half if you're just doing drives and overlooks so it really depends on what you like to do and one other thing to know about Zion is unlike a lot of other national parks that have some touristy things outside of it to do Zion really doesn't have that so it's not like there's plays and obstacle courses and gun ranges like there aren't things like that surrounding Zion and so Zion's kind of the show so that's just an important thing to know is like you come to Zion and you do the park but there's not a whole lot of outside like adventures besides there are some really cool other hiking overlook experiences surrounding the park and some of Utah State parks let's talk weather in Zion caliente it is so hot at Zion in the summer in fact

不，謝天謝地，你不需要 錫安在過去幾年經歷了一些重大的發展陣痛，天哪，它漲了很多，但這是因為錫安是驚人的，這就是為什麼這麼多人來，但在這個時候，你不需要預訂在公園裡的任何東西，除了做一部分的天使著陸你仍然可以在沒有預約的情況下游覽天使登陸步道的大部分路段 事實上，你可以遊覽前兩英里的路段，只是最後半英里叫做 "豬背因為每年都會有變化，我不想給你錯誤的資訊，所以我唯一的建議就是在旅行前幾個月查看國家公園的網站，這樣你就能知道需要進行哪些預訂，以及現在的條件，如果你正在考慮如果你正在考慮去錫安旅行，我想說的是

I avoid coming to Zion in the summer at all costs it is so hot so I mean something you can look online and see what the temperature is here and that will kind of give you an idea but not completely because if you're out in the

我不惜一切代價避免夏天來錫安，那裡太熱了，所以我的意思是，你可以上網看看這裡的氣溫是多少，那會給你一個概念，但並不完全是這樣，因為如果你在外面的話

Sun these red rocks they hold the heat and it radiates off and so even 70 degrees can feel quite hot today it's in the 60s and it's amazing it's a beautiful day to be out here and most of day I haven't even wearing my jacket but

太陽這些紅色的岩石能保持熱量並散發出去，所以即使是70度也會感覺很熱，今天有60多度，真是令人驚訝，今天天氣很好，我大部分時間都沒穿夾克，但我很喜歡這裡。

I'm in the shade right now which is another point is that it might say it's 80 degrees outside if you get in one of those slot canyons where there's no Sun it can be cold the other thing to know is that the water in Zion is super cold the Virgin River that people hike in to go do the narrows is is chilly and cold and the other thing to know about Zion is that it actually does get snow when we visited here in December November you'll see snow and ice along the canyon walls and it's really quite beautiful so just things to be aware and I would say like the best time of year to come here if you want good weather I would think maybe October and even like later April one other thing to know about if you're trying to pick a time to go let me just tell you a couple of benefits of certain times of the year we're here over spring break the first week of April it's beautiful a couple of downsides is that the trees don't have any green on them and the red rock with the green leaves is one of our favorite things about the park something good about being here right now is that there's waterfalls everywhere and red rocks and waterfalls are they're kind of rare and fun to see and the other little caution about coming in the spring is that the Virgin

我現在就在樹蔭下，還有一點就是，外面可能說是華氏80度，但如果你到了沒有太陽的狹縫峽谷裡，就會覺得很冷，還有一點要知道的是，錫安的水超級冷，人們徒步去做狹縫的維爾京河是寒冷的。另外，錫安還有一個特點，那就是下雪，我們在 12 月和 11 月來的時候，會看到峽谷壁上有冰雪，非常漂亮。如果你想選個時間去，我可以告訴你一年中某些時間的好處，我們在這裡過春假，四月的第一個星期，很美。紅石綠葉是我們最喜歡的地方之一 現在來這裡的好處是到處都是瀑布 紅石和瀑布都很罕見，很有趣

River is quite fast and sometimes it's so fast that they close and narrows down because if the water is going too fast it's dangerous and there is a risk for flash floods so yeah I think maybe the sweet spot would be October here in

河水相當湍急，有時湍急到要關閉河道、縮小河道，因為如果水流太急，就會很危險，有山洪暴發的危險。

 Zion for the time to go now the last question that might be on everyone's mind is is Zion a safe park to go to I think Zion has gotten some bad publicity over the last couple of years because of Falls particularly at Angels Landing but in my personal opinion I think Zion is a safe park to visit and let me tell you why the Rangers do a really good job about letting people be aware of the risks there's flash flood warnings listed places they talk about the dangers of climbing Angels Landing and things like that I think personally for our family on this trip I have I have four children and I chose not to take them on Angels Landing I don't think they're ready to go on that they're not gonna tell me I can't there's an age limit on Angels Landing but I'm choosing because I know my kids and I know their ages I think this will be better for them when they're older same thing with the narrows it wasn't a good idea this trip if the river is really fast right now and my kids are not that tall yet so that I think the river would knock them over and be dangerous and I so I think that if you go to Zion and you know your own limitations and have a good head about you you're gonna be safe it's gonna be fine and your family's gonna have an amazing trip

我認為錫安在過去幾年裡因為瀑布事件，特別是在天使降落點發生的瀑布事件而受到了一些不好的影響，但我個人認為錫安是一個安全的公園，讓我告訴你們為什麼。讓我告訴你為什麼遊騎兵做得非常好，他們讓人們意識到了風險，並在一些地方列出了山洪暴發的警告，他們會告訴人們攀登天使降落點的危險，以及諸如此類的事情。我覺得他們還沒準備好去爬那座山 他們不會告訴我我不能去 爬天使峽是有年齡限制的 但我選擇了 因為我瞭解我的孩子 我知道他們的年齡現在河水很急 我的孩子還沒那麼高 所以我覺得河水會把他們衝倒 會很危險 所以我覺得如果你
