E hele ana i Glacier Point, Yosemite
Maiʻoliʻoli nui i ka heluheluʻana i ka Glacier Point, e noʻonoʻo ana aia kahi'ōkoʻomaʻa ma ka National Park o Yosemite. He hoʻokahi wale nō mau manawa, akā he miliona mau makahiki i hala.
I kēia lā,ʻo ka inoaʻo Glacier Point e pili ana i kahi āu e kū nei a me ke awāwa i kahakahaʻia i lalo.
No ke aha e hele ai i ka Glacier Point
No kaʻikeʻana i ke kahawaiʻo Yosemite ma mua o ka mea mai Glacier Poing, ponoʻoe e aʻo i ka holoʻana a pehea e hoʻopaʻa ai iāʻoe iho ma waena o ka ea.
Ke kū nei ma kahi 3,214 kapuaʻi aʻe ma luna o ke awāwa (a 7,214 kapuaʻi ma mua aʻe o kaʻilikai), pono iāʻoe ke lele i loko o ke awāwa a pau:ʻO ka panohana mai Glacier Point e lawe iā Yosemite Valley, Half Dome, a meʻekolu mau wai. Ināʻoe e hele i ka pō (aiʻole e noho a hiki i ka pōʻeleʻele), hiki iāʻoe keʻike i ka Milky Way i hāholaʻia i ka lewa e like me ka'āpana diamond.
Hana kekahi poʻe e like me Glacier Point? E heleʻoe! ʻO 80% o kā mākou poʻe heluhelu i helu ai iā Glacier Point i mea weliweli.
Ka mea e manaʻo ai
ʻO Glacier Point wale nō he mile mai ke awāwa o Yosemite, akā, hoʻokahi paha hora e holo ai i kahi mamao he 30 mile mai ka kaʻa kaʻa. Pono e hele i kēlā manawa i kēia manawa e weheʻia anaʻo Glacier Point, no nā hiʻohiʻona hiʻohiʻona a no kaʻikeʻana i keʻano o ke awāwa mai luna mai.
Mai ka helu, hiki iāʻoe keʻike
Malia paha e hoʻolimalima paha i kahi hapalua hola a nānā paha a kiʻi kiʻi. ʻAʻoleʻoe wale nō i ka makemake e loaʻa kāu kiʻi i laweʻia maʻaneʻi.
Ke hana nei nā poʻe mai ia Pelekikena Theodore Roosevelt a me John Muir i kū i kiʻi i Glacier Point i ka makahiki 1903, he mau makahiki ma mua o ka liloʻana o Yosemite i hoʻokahi o nā National Parks mua o ka'āina.
ʻOiaiʻoe e hoʻolimalima nui i ka nānāʻana i nā kiʻi a me ka hopuʻana i nā kiʻi, makemake wau e lawe i kahi papa'ē aʻe o nā lole.
Uaʻoi aku ka māmā ma ka Glacier Point ma mua o ke awāwa. Inā pōloliʻoe, eʻikeʻoe i kahi wahi'ā lama e pili ana i ka hale kūʻai makana, kahi e hiki ai iāʻoe ke hoʻoulu i kāu hike iho iʻole eʻae wale i ka meaʻai eʻai ai i ka wā e mahalo ai i ka nani o ke kino.
Ināʻoe e noʻonoʻo nei i ka heleʻana eʻike i nā manaʻo, ka pōkole, ke ala i hele i ka nānā aku he hiki ke kaʻa kaʻala.
Ke holoholoʻana i ka Glacier Point
Hiki iāʻoe ke holo mai ke awāwa a hiki i Glacier Point, akā he mea koʻikoʻi loa kēia e koho iki nei e pale. No ka hanaʻana, hiki iāʻoe ke kiʻi iʻehā Mile Trail, kahi huakaʻi piʻi e loaʻa ai ma mua o 3,000 kapuaʻi (a hoʻomaka i kahi kokoke i 4,000 kapuaʻi).
ʻO ka hapa nui o nā holokai e hele i nā mileʻehā mai Glacier Point a hiki i ke awāwa. No ka hanaʻana i kēlā mea, ponoʻoe e loaʻaʻelua kaʻa, kahi i hoʻonohoʻia ma kēlā me kēiaʻaoʻao o ke alahele. ʻO kaʻoi aku o ka maʻalahi ke kūʻaiʻana i kahi palapala kono hoʻokahi no ka huakaʻi kaʻa kaʻa o Glacier Point a me ka holoʻana i lalo i ke awāwa.
ʻO ka lōʻihi, heʻeono hora hoʻomaha mai ke kahawaiʻo Glacier a hiki i ke awāwa e hahai ana i ka Panorama Trail a hiki i Nevada Falls, a laila laweʻo ia i ke alanui Mist i Happy Isles ma ke awāwa.
Hiki paha i nā mea hoʻokele kūpono ke hele i ka holo wāwae hele, e hele ana i ke alanuiʻehā a Mile a hiki i Glacier Point, a me nā Alakaʻi Panorama a me nā alaʻo Mist hoʻi i ka awāwa, akā,ʻaʻole ia he mea e ho'āʻo aiʻoe me ka maopopoʻole o kāu ia.
Loaʻa i Glacier Point
Ke hiki akuʻoe i ka Yosemite, awāwa, ponoʻoe ma lalo o Glacier Point. Hoʻokaʻawaleʻia lākou ma kahi mau mile wale nō e like me ka lele leleʻana o ka'ōlelo akamai, akā, he 32 mile ka lōʻihi o ke alanui ma waena o lākou. Hiki iāʻoe keʻike i kahi o kēia mahele palapala Yosemite. No ka heleʻana aku i Glacier Point mai ke Awawa o Yosemite, nui ka poʻe malihini kipa e hoʻokele. No ka holoʻana mai ke awāwa, e holo i waho o ke awāwa ma ka Northside Drive, e huli hema ma kahi o ka Pohono Bridge ma kaʻaoʻao Southside Drive, a laila, lawe i ke alanui Wawona i Bridalveil Fall a hāʻule ma Glacier Point Road.
Ma ke alanui, hiki paha pahaʻoe ke haʻalele i Washburn Point, kahi i like like me ia, akā me ka nānā ponoʻana i ka Vernal a me Nevada Falls.
Hiki iāʻoe ke lawe i kahi huakaʻi kaʻa maʻamau i Glacier Point.
ʻAʻole pahaʻoe e hele i Yosemite eʻike pono iā Glacier Point. Inā e hoʻolālā anaʻoe i ka holoʻana i ka paka'āina, eʻike i nā mea a pau e kali, i ka mea e kiʻi ai, a me pehea e hiki ai i laila.
A laila, hiki iāʻoe ke hoʻoholo inā he huakaʻi kēia e hoʻohālikeʻia eʻoe no ka papa inoa o ka baila. E hoʻohana i kēia kulekele i ka Yosemite Valley e loaʻa ai nāʻike aʻike i nā mea'ē aʻe ma Yosemite .
