Thor's Hammer: Custer State Park (3-1)
https://itchiang.blogspot.com/2015/07/custer-state-park-3-1.html
Wednesday, July 22, 2015. Custer State Park (3-1). 2 State Game Lodge]. 3-6 Black-Tailed Prairie Dog]. Figure 3-1.1: 開車穿越野牛陣也常發生在這公園,一隻小bison還坐在馬路上正中間。 Figure 3-1.2: 這隻自己走自己的。 Figure 3-1.3: 五月可以看到很多這種母子組合,這角度的bison媽看起來還蠻修長苗條的。 Figure 3-1.4: 小bison被稱為red dog,再過一陣子就會變黑色。 除了黃石公園外,Custer State Park是最容易看到(大群)bison的地方之一,連這公園入口的牌子都劃上這動物。Wildlife Loop Road是最容易看到這動物的一條路,從一頭開到另一頭應該很難沒看到。不僅如此,通常很容易就在路邊看到一大群。大致上,在黃石公園可以經歷的情景也可以在這經歷到。 Figure 3-1.5: 這隻小bison已經很習慣觀光客,慢條斯理過馬路。 Figure 3-1.6: 瞪著我的哺乳母bison。 McArthur–...

Thor's Hammer: July 2015
https://itchiang.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 29, 2015. Custer State Park (3-3). 2 State Game Lodge]. 3-6 Black-Tailed Prairie Dog]. Figure 3-3.1: 路邊的一隻burro,肚子垂垂的很有趣。 Figure 3-3.2: 這些burro常喜歡向路過的遊客要食物吃。 Figure 3-3.3: 基本上,只要把車窗搖下,他們會自動把頭伸進來。 Figure 3-3.4: 這天稍有陽光,看起來比較有精神。 Custer State Park之前也引進burro服勞役,比如運送遊客到Black Hills的最高峰Harney Peak,後來這活動停止,而這些burro就被放生,而他們大概也就從H1-B簽證升格成綠卡、甚至已經成為了公民,因為1971年國會通過了Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act這保護burro的法案。 Figure 3-3.5: 這畫面蠻可愛的,burro媽跟一隻小burro在奔跑。 Figure 3-3.6: 一群burro走在馬路上。 White-tailed dee...

Thor's Hammer: Custer State Park (2)
https://itchiang.blogspot.com/2015/07/custer-state-park-2.html
Wednesday, July 8, 2015. Custer State Park (2). 2 State Game Lodge]. Figure 2.1: 馬路旁的State Game Lodge。 2 State Game Lodge. Custer State Park裡有不少有特色的旅館,State Game Lodge是裡面最有歷史性、應該也是最有名的,而這旅館也被登錄在National Register of Historic Places裡。旅館地點就在Wildlife Loop Road旁的US-16A上,算是旅遊這公園、甚至是整個Black Hills其他地方比如 Mount Rushmore National Memorial. 12289;Crazy Horse、Wind Cave National Park與Jewel Cave National Monument相當理想的住宿地點。 Figure 2.2: State Game Lodge的正面,前方還有個大草坪,運氣好的話會看到一大群bison走到這。 Figure 2.5: 旅館的大廳。 即使當了總統,他依...

Tuesday, June 30, 2015. Mount Rushmore National Memorial (2). Figure 2.1: 這間是Sculptor's Studio,也可以進去參觀。 Figure 2.2: 這是原訂計畫的模型,不過刻完四顆頭後經費就用完了就是。 Figure 2.3: 時間不趕的話可以走走Presidential Trail,步道上也提供不同角度欣賞四尊總統石像。 這紀念公園有個Presidential Trail可以hiking,事實上應該算是在散步,時間不趕的話可以來走走,運氣好的話也許還可以看到mountain goat,雖然這動物在這算是non-native就是。Presidential Trail這步道旁還有個Sculptor's Studio可以進去參觀,主要有四尊總統石像的模型與其他刻石像的相關東西可以看。 Figure 2.4: Presidential Trail不少部分都在樹林裡,短且好走。 Figure 2.5: 另一個角度的四尊總統石像。 Figure 2.6: George Washington的獨照。 撇開櫻桃樹事件不能算政績A...
