Mount Beacon
先日、突然思いつきマウントビーコンへ初めて登ってきた。
花粉症がすこし気になったが、町の南に位置する柔らかな新緑の木々に包まれた標高４６７メートルのなだらかな山の上まで歩いてみたい気持ちになり、水だけ持って気軽に出かけた。
山道は下から見ていたよりも少し険しかったが、１時間弱でビーコンの町とハドソン川を一望に見下ろせる頂上に着き、南西に連なるアパラチア山脈の一部も素晴らしい眺望だった。
半日あればゆっくりと往復できるコースなので、これからまた度々訪れてみたいと思う。
All of a sudden, I decided to climb the mount Beacon yesterday for the first time. Although I was little concerned with my hay fever, the mountain that stands just south of the town covered with soft greens of new leaves was so inviting. A bottle of water was enough to bring to climb 1,531 feet peak with a gentle slope. The slope was little steeper then it looked from the bottom, but it took less than an hour to reach the peak that has a wonderful vista of a town of Beacon and the Hudson River. A part of Appalachian laid toward southwest was marvelous as well. Since it’s just a half day trip, I’d like to visit there again.
