Chapter 869 Camping
When you come to Yosemite, you must do a good strategy and complete preparations in advance. It is relatively easy to go wrong like Yang Cheng and the others. Fortunately, Lin Ximan's organizational skills are good, and there is no problem along the way. If something went wrong, I successfully checked into the hotel and waited to head to the park the next morning.
The golden tourist season here is summer, and the weather is basically good from June to August, except for thunderstorms that come from time to time, which usually pass quickly.
The summer here is not very hot, it ends at around 30 degrees during the day, and it is cool at night. In places with high altitudes, it is equivalent to spring, the grass is green, and the snow has almost melted.
However, the water in the general waterfall is almost dry in July, but every year at this time, the children in the school are released to the society, screaming and running in the park, which is also the time when the park has the most crowded people in all seasons. The staff of the hotel are also often exhausted at this time, and their attitude towards tourists' problems is usually not very good.
Therefore, if you want to avoid the flow of people, it is best to choose to come to Yosemite in autumn. Yosemite in autumn is a colorful world, like a natural watercolor painting. In the best season in the city, the temperature is pleasant during the day, and although it is cold at night, it is also a beautiful time to look up at the starry sky. However, most of the waterfalls have run out of water at this time, which is also a small pity.
Yang Cheng and his party got up early in the morning and drove into the park. They had reserved a camping area in advance, so they walked very quickly. Everyone decided to set up camp first and then consider sightseeing.
Ordinary campsites only cost 20 dollars, but a location with a good view needs to be booked in advance, at most half a year in advance. Of course, Lin Ximan didn't book the so-called "Feng Shui Treasure Site". There is not much difference between a dug fire pit and an iron frame. As for the scenery, there is only a difference between whether there is water or not.
Following the big troops parked their cars at the pre-booked campsite, the men were busy setting up tents, while the girls began to make up their makeup and do some things within their capacity, such as picking up some dry branches for the bonfire. Of course, they brought a lot of The fast-burning charcoal is used to make a bonfire to set off the atmosphere.
In Yang Cheng's memory, there are a lot of outdoor survival knowledge recorded, which was taught to him by his grandfather when he was a child. Lao Mei has a strong hands-on ability. Generally, he can repair a tool or even a small problem with a vehicle by himself. Yang Cheng grew up like this Growing up in a comfortable environment, he is naturally very proficient in manual work, and such trivial things as pitching a tent are easy to grasp.
After three times, five times and two times, the two-person tent that he and Luo Yue stayed in at night was set up. Luo Yue's eyes were full of brilliance, obviously he didn't expect Yang Cheng to have such a skill.
"What? Don't believe I can do this kind of work?" Yang Cheng patted the ashes on his hands, inspected the tent, and asked with his hips on his hips after making sure there was no problem.
Last night I slept in the same bed with Yang Cheng, although nothing happened, but in Luo Yue's heart, it was as if something had happened, and I felt that the distance between Yang Cheng and Yang Cheng had narrowed again, and it was completely ridiculous to tease her now. He didn't restrain himself, "Well~ I thought that a young master like you should open his mouth and stretch out his hands when he eats, but I didn't expect~"
Yang Cheng smiled stinkingly, "There are so many things you can't think of, so where is this?"
As soon as the words finished, she glanced away from the corner of her eye and found that Lin Ximan was still surrounded by those three flies, and they rushed to pitch a tent for her, but Lin Ximan ignored her, took the manual by herself, and groped a little bit. He set up a tent with his own hands.
Yang Cheng pouted at her, and said to Luo Yue,
"It seems that your girlfriend is really fascinated by those three male compatriots~"
Luo Yue looked back and saw this scene, she was obviously used to it, "Leave her alone, let's quickly help set up the barbecue pit, I guess it will be noon after we're done, everyone should be hungry~"
"OK, listen to you~"
With the help of Yang Cheng, the barbecue grill was quickly set up, and with the help of electronic ignition equipment, the bonfire ignited a tall red flame. Everyone applauded and cheered. Fire is the origin of civilization, even if people live in In the modern electrical age, it is still unavoidable to rely on fire. Just like now, with a bonfire, everyone feels warm and feels full of security.
Seeing someone open the fresh-keeping box containing fresh meat, Yang Cheng quickly reminded, "Put the fresh meat in the bear-proof tank. Although this is a safety period created by humans, after all, in the wild, accidents may happen at any time. Seeing Winter is coming, wild bears are frantically hunting to store energy and prepare for hibernation, maybe there will be lost bears coming here, so men must be vigilant."
His reminder was very timely. Several "old people" who have been in the United States for more than 20 years immediately realized the importance. Since the park has prepared bear proof tanks near the campsite, it proves the need for caution. It must have happened before. There have been cases of wild bears straying into campsites.
So, everyone communicated with each other, and their expressions were not as relaxed as before, and they had to glance around from time to time.
Luo Yue looked at her fiancé quite proudly. Besides, traveling is the best occasion to verify the relationship between the two. In a short period of time, she can discover the charm that is usually unknown.
Patted Luo Yue who was staring at him in a daze, and said with a strange smile, "Did you fall in love with me?"
Luo Yue nodded instinctively, and in less than a second, she came to her senses, glaring at Yang Cheng in embarrassment, "The devil loves you~"
After finishing speaking, she didn't give Yang Cheng a chance to defend herself, so she trotted to help her best friend, leaving Yang Cheng alone to deal with things for barbecue.
It has to be said that the United States has done a good job in protecting the natural environment. In fact, the predecessor of Yosemite was the Butterfly Valley Giant Sequoia Nature Reserve. It was only in the 1880s and 1990s that it officially became the second American park after Yellowstone Park. National Park, and was recognized as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1984.
"Majestic domes and canyons, dark forests extending upwards, and rows of magnificent white mountain peaks reflect the sky, each scene is burning with dazzling beauty, radiating around like the heat of a flame ~", This is John Muir, the father of national parks in the United States, describing Yosemite, known as the back garden of California, a sanctuary of nature.
Indeed, Yosemite is such a place where anyone will linger and forget to return. It looks like a fairyland from any angle, with towering giant cedar trees, high mountains and flowing water, rugged rocky cliffs carved by glaciers, and sparkling waters. On the surface of the lake, people in it seem to be in a paradise;
It may be that Yang Cheng’s roasted fragrant beef attracted the attention of wild hummingbirds. These naughty forest elves wanted to participate very much. They flew over the grill from time to time, but they were scared away by the fireworks, and they were not reconciled for a while. fly back.
Yang Cheng, who was holding the clip, thought it was fun, and asked Luo Yue to tear the bread into small pieces and throw it into the air. The nimble elves vibrated their wings and picked up the bread crumbs precisely with a swipe, as if they had cooperated with Luo Yue Decades of general tacit understanding.
Yang Cheng didn't grill too much, just grilled a few chicken wings and sausages, picked them up on a plate, and went to the stream side by side with Luo Yue, leaving the grill for the next man who wanted to show off his charm to his girlfriend.
"It's so beautiful here~" Luo Yue had just chased the hummingbird, a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead as he ran, panting heavily.
Yang Cheng himself loves natural scenery, so of course he agrees, "Yes, it's a pity that the water volume of the waterfall is not enough now, and I can't see it now, otherwise it would be more beautiful, especially the Bridal Veil Waterfall. It is named for the hazy feeling caused by the small amount of water, hanging in the air like a bridal veil.
It is said that during the Ice Age, the main valley of Yosemite contained more ice, and the valley was cut deeper. The Bridal Veil Falls is one of the many waterfalls flowing from the suspended valley. It is very beautiful~ "
Luo Yue looked at Yang Cheng with adoring eyes, "You know a lot~"
Yang Cheng smiled wryly and didn't dare to answer. Could it be that this is the place where he and his first girlfriend often come? This knowledge was told to him by his first love girlfriend.
The two sat by the creek, eating barbecue delicacies, with a panoramic view of the beautiful scenery, and their mood suddenly brightened with the beautiful scenery.
He was chatting comfortably, when hurried footsteps came from behind, before anyone arrived, Lin Ximan's complaining voice arrived first, "Ah~ so angry~"
Yang Cheng and Luo Yue hurriedly turned their heads, Luo Yue asked concerned, "What's wrong?"
Lin Ximan sat down, picked up a sausage on the plate with his bare hands, took a bite, and said while chewing, "I also booked a hotel in the park, thinking that I don't want to sleep outdoors at night. People can go to a hotel to stay, but the people from the hotel just called and said they were going to increase the price and asked if we should cancel or make up the money, it’s so annoying, how could they do this, they have no integrity at all~”
Yang Cheng laughed. The lodging problem in Yosemite National Park has been criticized for a long time, but it has not been improved. "All the hotels in the park are monopolized by a super trust called Delaware Northern Company. This company also occupies several hotels in national parks, and there are countless black regulations. This is not the first time this has happened to you. It is not surprising at all. It must be because a large tour group is coming to reserve the hotel, so it is used Price hikes force you to cancel your booking."
Lin Ximan was dumbfounded, "Then what should we do? Do we really want to live in the wild?"
Yang Cheng looked at her dumbfounded, "You suggested this, aren't we here just to make the sky our bed and the earth our bed?"
Luo Yue shook Yang Cheng's arm, "Okay, don't just read the jokes, besides, I don't feel at ease living in the wild at night, it's so unsafe, think of a solution~"
With such a fiancée who cares about her girlfriends at the booth, Yang Cheng was also very helpless, and raised her hand to beg for forgiveness, "Okay, okay, let me think of a way, don't worry~"
