Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument
昨天參觀完班德利爾國家遺址保護區(Bandelier National Monument)後回到聖塔菲市(Santa Fe)用晚餐,同時夜宿聖塔菲市(Santa Fe);今天利用回丹佛之便順到遊覽帳篷岩國家遺址保護區(Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument)。
Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument(帳篷岩國家遺址保護區)位於新墨西哥州首府Santa Fe和最大城市Albuquerque之間的Cochiti Pueblo印第安保留地內,由於區內岩石酷似帳篷因之得名,但此所言之帳篷是指印地安人傳統的帳篷“Teepee”,而不是我們一般印象中的帳篷“Tent”;該遺址保護區我們在前年(2015)曾去造訪一次,但當時到園時間較晚,又不知道冬天開放時間縮短,在Slot Canyon Trail半途中就被一位Ranger攔截下來,他告訴我們園方規定在下午三點半前沒登頂的就不能再繼續前行了,我們只好下山,因此錯過許多精華的景點殊為可惜,最扼腕的是大女兒了,一再說一定要再來,所以,我們又來了!
有關該園區的詳情請瀏覽我前年的紀錄~~
帳篷岩國家保護區(Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument)—2015.11.21
本篇不再重複贅述,僅貼出步道後半段、前年未走完的部分照片,讓讀者一窺該園區特殊的地質景觀!
Slot Canyon Trail步道簡述:
Slot Canyon Trail步道單程長約1.5哩,登山口海拔5,731呎(1,747公尺),總爬升高度約570呎(174公尺),來回含山頂停留慢慢走約三小時;整條步道大致區分為三部分:
前段:由停車場登山口至Cave loop Trail岔路為兩步道共用步道,長約0.5哩,步道幾乎沒爬升,寬敞好走。

中段:由Cave loop Trail岔路取右行,不久進入峽谷地形,由於狹谷狹窄所以稱為Slot Canyon,沿途狹窄的岩壁與羚羊峽谷(Antelope Canyon)有點近似,只是其氣勢、規模及色彩是無法相提並論的;此段距離約0.25哩,步道小幅度爬升。

後段:出了峽谷後步道爬升坡度逐漸加大,尤其要登頂前約將近半哩路較為陡峭,此段長約0.75哩,爬升近100公尺,登頂後有兩三條稍微向下延伸的小徑可更貼近俯瞰整個峽谷地形。
