怡潔旅美遊記(六)--Zapata Falls (2017.07.08)

離開Bishop Castle後驅車前往Great Sand Dunes,在車子由US-160 W公路轉進CO-150 N北行10.7哩後右側山路是通往Zapata Falls的道路,此岔路距Great Sand Dunes Visitor Center8.7哩;我們決定先到該瀑布走走。

車子右轉粗糙的石子路上山,石子路有點難行,3.5哩後抵達Zapata Falls停車場。

由停車場走半哩的緩升坡石子路即抵達Zapata Falls;Zapata Falls是隱藏在深邃的巨岩石縫裡頭,必須涉一小段溪谷才能一睹廬山真面目。

這個季節是枯水期,所以瀑布水量不大,如果是在爬完大沙丘後來此玩玩冰涼的溪水倒是不錯的另種玩法!
