1、snoqualmie falls(http://www.snoqualmiefalls.com/)
这个瀑布如果你时间允许,一定要去一下。它还是个发电厂。具体也可以参考https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snoqualmie_Falls
公交路线大致如下:
可以乘坐221,换554,然后换208到达。
221下来后需要从P&R过天桥,去找到554,是bay4的554,不要坐错了。坐一站后(这一站略微长)到达issaqual transit center 的bay6下车,到达bay4等待208.
美国这一点好,就是下车和上车站台是不一样的,提前谷歌查好地图,知道从哪个bay上车,你一定不会坐错方向。
还有就是算好时间。上车可以拿一份208公交线路时刻表,上面会标554和208线路时间最佳换乘。
208会穿过issaqual小镇,然后沿途还能看到有雪山。
强烈建议到谷歌地图查(美区苹果手机内还可以下载Here Maps http://pcedu.pconline.com.cn/433/4339464.html)看好再出行。我去的时候是赶上的11:31这一班车。(http://metro.kingcounty.gov/schedules/208/n0.html)
208坐到Snoqualmie Railroad Ave SE & SE Newton St下车后,不用过马路,直接沿着路往回走。左手边旁边是小铁道。(是个铁路museum,回来时有时间再看。)
过红绿灯,过一座桥,左手边的路上去就能看到一座酒店。再往前就到了“山上公园”,记得还有个“山下公园”,看到的景色是不一样的。从上面到下面,有一段距离。年龄大需要注意。也可以开车直接到山下公园。
注:上面的网站上有地图。
需要考虑的因素:
1)吃的东西,
2)返回时间,我是冬季去的,而且是坐公交车,所以不能太晚返回,天气会变冷。
3)restroom厕所,山下的小公园里面有。山上的酒店里面也有。
2、Wallace Falls State Park(计划中)

地图,上面标明了各段路的距离,有些貌似还是比较长的,做好心理准备。

Did you know that Wallace Falls State Park actually comprises nine waterfalls? Kick off the new year with a 2-mile hike by way of Woody Trail to Middle Falls, by far the most impressive of the falls with a 265-foot drop. In 2013, we featured Wallace Falls as one of our five amazing waterfall hikes for the rainy season. Here’s your chance to check it out! The hike to the Middle Falls will take approximately 1-1/2 hours. After this time, you are welcome to continue the hike past Middle Falls. The tour will stop at a few points along the trail for a break, and the ranger will talk about the park and answer questions.
Where: Woody Trail.
Gear: Sturdy footwear, layered clothing, food and water.
Difficulty: Moderate.
Pets:? Yes (on leash).
About First Day Hikes:
America’s State Parks ‘First Day Hikes’ are a national initiative organized more than 25 years ago by the National Association of State Park Directors. Since 2013, all 50 state park systems have participated in the First Day Hikes program.
January 1 is also a Washington State Parks ‘Free Day.’ Participants will not need to display the Discover Pass on vehicles to access state parks for the New Year’s Day activities. Some events taking place in Sno-Park areas will require Sno-Park permits. For more information about all the First Day Hikes events in Washington state parks, please visit our Adventure Awaits blog at: http://adventureawaits.com/2015/12/adventure-first-day-hikes-2016/(这个链接你可以发现更多公园)
3、Note:
1)discover pass
http://www.discoverpass.wa.gov/
http://www.discoverpass.wa.gov/31/About-the-Pass
The Discover Pass is a motor vehicle permit only. You do not need the pass to access state recreation lands by boat or by non-motorized means (foot, horse, bicycle, etc.). Motor vehicles used to transport recreation equipment, such as vehicles pulling horse or boat trailers, must display the pass. However, the trailers being towed that are carrying the equipment do not need a Discover Pass. Boaters will still need to pay for such services as moorage and waste-pumping.
2)A recreational license is required for fishing and shellfish harvesting at Washington State Parks. For regulations, fishing season information, or to purchase a recreational license, visit the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife.
