点评:This of course is the geyser basin associated with Old Faithful, which is located at the village, at the southernmost part of the Upper Basin. A number of the well-known geysers are in this grouping. There are many colorful pools, the Firehole River, and of course the geysers and bubbling springs in all their variety. The names Upper and Lower for the geyser basins can be a little confusing, especially for a first-time visitor, but remember that it is “Upper” along the Firehole River, which flows to the north-ish. We walked partway around the Upper Basin after watching Old Faithful our first evening in the park, when we were quite tired out. The weather was perfect, and none of the walk (boardwalks) along where we went was difficult in the least. My husband and I have seen this geyser basin many times from childhood on. This trip, we walked back to our lodge in the village when we got tired. The great thing is that you can walk all around the basin, or as short as you have time & energy for. Most of the boardwalk is accessible for those with mobility impairment, and no significant up- or down-hills.
翻译:这当然就是与老忠实泉相关的间歇泉盆地,它位于村庄里,也就是上盆地的最南端。许多著名的间歇泉都位于这个区域。这里有许多色彩斑斓的水池、火洞河,当然还有各种各样的间歇泉和冒泡的泉眼。间歇泉盆地的上盆地和下盆地的名称可能会让人有点困惑,尤其是对于第一次来的游客来说,但请记住,“上盆地”指的是沿着火洞河的一侧,这条河大致向北流淌。我们在公园的第一个晚上看完老忠实泉后,就沿着上盆地走了一圈,当时我们已经很累了。天气非常好,我们走的那些步道(木栈道)也一点都不难走。我和丈夫从小就来过这个间歇泉盆地很多次。这次旅行,我们累了就走回了村里的旅馆。最棒的是,您可以环湖漫步,也可以根据自己的时间和精力选择游览的距离。大部分木栈道都方便行动不便人士通行,而且没有明显的上下坡。
