西冰川(West Glacier)通常被称为“冰川国家公园的门户”,是这片壮丽荒野的西入口。它是进入公园的游客的重要枢纽,提供通往著名的太阳路(Going-to-the-Sun Road)以及许多冰川国家公园标志性地标和活动的入口。难怪我们会从这里开始我们的旅程!

Going-to-the-Sun公路
今天,我们全程将沿着标志性的日光大道行驶,这是一条全长50英里的风景秀丽的山间公路,从西向东横跨冰川国家公园,在洛根山口穿越大陆分水岭。这一工程奇迹是游客的必看之地,提供了公园中一些最壮丽的景色。

这条路建于1921年至1932年间,设计上旨在融入自然景观,并尽量减少环境影响。它以沿途可见的著名山峰“日光山”命名,1997年因其建筑和工程意义被列为国家历史地标。但同样重要的是要认识到,这片土地是黑脚、萨利什、库特奈和彭多雷尔部落的历史区域。这些原住民与该地区有着深厚的精神和文化联系,他们称其为“世界的脊柱”。黑脚人控制了山脉以东的大部分土地,而萨利什和库特奈人居住在西部地区。根据黑脚部落的传说,这个名字来源于一个神话人物纳皮,或称老者,他是从太阳降临的英雄,向黑脚人传授知识。完成教导后,他从今天被称为“日光山”的一座山上返回天空,这条路正是沿着这座山修建的。

1921年施工开始时,许多工程师怀疑能否在冰川国家公园崎岖的地形中建造出一条道路。工人们面临危险条件,从炸开陡峭的岩壁到忍受恶劣天气。其中一个特别具有挑战性的路段是花园墙,一个狭窄的山脊,工人们必须将道路刻进山坡。施工需要极高的精度和勇气,工人们经常用绳索悬挂在悬崖之上。尽管面临这些挑战,这条路最终在1932年完工,被誉为工程奇迹。

日光大道不仅仅是一条风景优美的道路。它承载着许多历史,是贯穿公园的唯一道路,提供了通往多样化生态系统、巍峨山峰和原始山谷的通道。今天的旅程一定会让您难忘,我保证!
