欢迎来到玩儿去频道
Welcome to WAQU’s channel
今天是2020年11月3号
Today is November 3, 2020
也就是美国的大选日
It’s election day in the United States
趁着大家去投票的工夫
While people are going to vote
我们来爬个山
Let’s go for a hike
现在我们是在山脚下
Now we’re at the foot of the mountain
看这个牌子说
Look at this warning sign
要小心响尾蛇
Watch out for rattlesnakes
现在反正正好是季节
It’s the right time of year
能看到很多很多刚孵化出来的小蛇
You can see lots of newly hatched snakes
在山道上爬来爬去
crawling up and down the trail
但愿今天我们爬山的时候能看到一、两条蛇
Hopefully we’ll see a snake or two on our hike today
不过,估计很难如愿
But it’s not likely to happen
因为现在是早上
Because it’s morning
温度比较低
The temperature is low
蛇是不愿意活动的
Snakes are reluctant to move
不管怎么样
Anyway
我们试一下运气吧
Let’s try our luck
响尾蛇
Rattlesnake
在爬山之前
Before the hike
我们先看一下这里的海拔高度有多少
Let’s see what the elevation is here first
让我们打开这个APP
Let’s open this app
现在是580英尺
The height is now 580 feet
除以3的话
If you divide by three
也就是170米左右
that’s about 170 meters
等我们爬到山顶比较一下
We’ll compare them when we get to the top
看看我们爬了有多高的海拔高度
Look at how high we climbed
好,我们现在开始爬山
Okay, let’s start climbing now
这条山路呢比较陡
This is a steeper trail
路也比较窄
And narrow too
所以如果要是错行的话
When meeting someone on the trail
会非常的困难
where passage may be difficult
所以要像那个山路超车会车似的
As you’re driving on a mountain road
互相要避让
You should yield to other cars
前面这个小妞爬山挺有意思的
The girl in front was climbing awkwardly
手脚并用
using both hands and feet
戴了一副专业的手套来爬地
She even wore a pair of professional gloves for crawling
不知道有什么讲究
I don’t know what purpose is about
这山路因为现在非常干
The trail is very dry now
全都是土
Covered in dust
经常你会在树干上看见一些四脚蛇
You’ll often see some skinks on the trees
爬来爬去的
crawling around
现在过了这个拐角
Now passing this corner
就可以看到我们要爬的那个山顶了
You can see the top of the hill we’re going to climb
你看正前方远远的那个山
Look at that mountain in the distance
被雾罩着的
covered in fog
就是我们今天要爬的山顶
That’s the top of the mountain we’re climbing today
这个雾呢是海雾
This fog is called the marine layer
也就是从太平洋里吹过来的
It’s coming from the Pacific
每天早晨都会雾非常大
It’s intense in the morning
然后到中午
Until noon
随着太阳的升起
the heat of the sun becomes strong enough
这个雾就会消散
to evaporate it
到下午的时候又会回来
It will be back in the afternoon
这雾真大啊
It’s so foggy
现在我们继续往上爬
Now let’s keep climbing
现在我们要爬的那个山
The mountain we’re climbing now
基本看不见那个山顶
You can barely see the top
全被雾罩着
It’s all covered in fog
你看前面有一片仙人掌
Look, there’s a cactus patch up ahead of us
已经干不呲咧的
They seem to be drying out
你看看这些植被
Look at the vegetation
现在基本上都是一种干黄色
They’re all yellow
枯黄枯黄的
yellow, withered vegetation
洛杉矶呢
In Los Angeles
一年四季分两个季
It has only two seasons of the year
一个是旱季
One is the dry season
一个是雨季
And the rainy season
现在进入十一月呢
It’s November already
也就是说雨季马上就有开始了
That means the rainy season will start soon
所以,随着几场大雨过后
After a few heavy rains
这山就会一片绿油油的
the mountain will be green
而且会有很多的野花儿
And there will be lots of wildflowers
那时候就比现在漂亮多了
It was much prettier then
你看现在地上这些土面儿
Look at all this dirt on the ground now
一刮风都吹得睁不开眼
You can’t even keep your eyes open when the wind blows
下完雨后
After the rain
这些土都变成了泥巴浆
all this dirt turns to mud
踩在脚上黏糊糊的
It’s sticky on your feet
看一下这条山沟
Take a look at this canyon
我们就是沿着这条山沟
We’re just going up the ridge
左边的山脊一直往上爬
on the left side of this canyon
看看远处遛狗的人
Look at that guy walking his dog in the distance
已经下山了
He’s already going down
越往山上走
The further up the hill you go
感觉雾气越大
the fog getting heavier
让我们再回头看看后面的景色
Let’s see the view behind us
这就是我们刚才爬上来的那条小路
We just climbed up that trail
整个市区都被海雾笼罩着
The whole city is covered in marine layer
这是狗尾巴草
This is the dog’s tail grass
噢,错了
Oh, I was wrong
看这一丛丛叫狼尾草
It’s wolf’s tail grass
比狗尾巴草要强壮很多
It’s sturdier than dog’s tail grass
瞧瞧这些仙人掌干的
Look at these cacti, they are drying out
仔细看这个雾
Look closely at this fog
看这条山路
Look at this trail
我们从山底一直爬上来
We climbed all the way up from the bottom
看这个雾气
Take a look at the fog
马上就要到山顶了
We’re almost at the top
这是最后的冲刺
This is the final sprint
最后的几步路了
It’s the last few steps
马上就要到山顶了
We’re about to reach the top
看看这个红盒子
Look at this red box
这是个什么东西
What is this
这是一个心脏除颤器
It’s a cardiac defibrillator
最近看新闻
Read the news recently
听说北京的地铁里
I heard that in the subway in Beijing
也逐步安装了这玩意儿
They’re gradually installing the devices as well
别小这个玩意儿
Don’t underestimate this device
救命的东西
Something to save your life
我们再来看看这个心脏除颤器
Let’s take a closer look at this defibrillator
一个很小巧的东西
It’s a very small device
看这些不干胶的贴子给粘得满满的
It has stickers all over it
狗皮膏药一样
Looks like poultice pads
让我们看一下这个海拔高度
Let’s take a look at the elevation
现在是1200英尺
It’s now 1200 feet
除以3的话
divide by three
也就是接近400米不到吧
That’s less than 400 meters
也就是说
in other words
我们从170米开始爬
We started at 170 meters
到现在爬到了370不到吧
We’ve climbed to less than 370 meters by now
360多米
Just over 360 meters
所以也没有爬多高的海拔高度
Even we didn’t climb very high in elevation
但是累得呼哧带喘的
But still exhausted and panting
我们现在站到山顶
We’re on top of the hill now
就可以远远地看见好莱坞的那个标志
You can see the Hollywood sign from a distance
看着雾蒙蒙的
It’s foggy
但是还是可以看出一个轮廓
But you can still see an outline
现在站在山顶
Now on top of the hill
我来一个全景的扫描
I’ll take a panoramic sweep
看看这个整个的情况是个什么样的
See what this whole view is like
现在这个雾蒙蒙的地方就是市中心
That foggy place is downtown
洛杉矶的市中心
Downtown Los Angeles
因为现在有雾
Because of the fog
所以看不见
we can’t see anything
等一会雾去了
Wait for the fog to clear
看看我们能不能下山的时候
Probably when we’re coming down the hill
看到一些市区的景象
We can see the downtown L.A.
这个地儿吧
This place
非常奇怪
is very strange
我走到这儿吧
Every time I come this way
经常手机会自动拨打我的紧急联系人
my phone automatically called my emergency contact
也不知道是因为
I wonder if it’s because of
这个高压线路的磁场造成的呢
the magnetic field from this high voltage line
还是什么情况
Or some other reason
反正是特别诡异
Anyway, it’s extremely spooky
高压线路
High-voltage lines
高压塔
High Voltage Transmission Tower
为了防止攀爬
To prevent climbing
你看这些齿儿
Look at these spikes
唉,其实想爬也都能爬
Well, you can climb it if you want
你看看这边的齿儿
Look at the spikes over her.
全都被打掉了
They’ve all been knocked out
这个木头台阶
Let’s follow this wooden stairs
继续往上走
And keep moving up
看看下面
Take a look down there
人家游人用石头建造的一个迷宫
A maze of stones built by hikers
一会儿我们走到跟前儿去看一下
We’ll take a closer look down there in a minute
这个仙人掌下面
under the cactus bush
有一个房车改造的房子出租
There’s a house built with a RV for rent
我特别喜欢这个房子
I like this house a lot
看看,废物利用还是挺不错的
Look, it’s a good example of reusing waste
好,现在这就是一些仙人掌
Well, here are some cacti
你仔细看看
Take a closer look
上面全都是那个我们以前说过的胭脂虫
Full of the cochineal bugs we’ve mentioned before
看来现在到了胭脂虫收获的季节了
Looks like it’s the harvest season for cochineal bugs
你看,铺天盖地的
All over the place
到处都是
They’re everywhere
你看上面白花花的
All white
好,我们现在向迷宫走去
We’re heading to the maze now
近距离看看这个迷宫是什么样的
To get a closer look at what this maze looks like
看看,还有人带来颜料
Oh, look, someone brought paint
给他涂上颜色
Painted on the rocks
你看看
You can tell
还是费了一番心思的
someone put some effort on it
迷宫
Maze
疫情以后
Since the epidemic
特意喷洒了这个标记
The management painted these marks on purpose
也就是说
that is say
行人要各行其道
hikers should go their own way
减少相互传染的机会
Reducing opportunities for cross-infection
这个角度原来如果没有雾气的话
If it wasn’t foggy
可以一直看到洛杉矶的市中心
you could see the downtown from this angle
现在呢因为迷雾
Now, because of the fog
所以我们什么也看不见
So we can’t see anything
看来我们只能这样了
Looks like that’s all we can see
今天回去的话
When I get home today
我会补一张过去的照片
I’ll look for a picture of the past
让大家看一看没有雾气时候的景象是个什么样子的
Let’s show you what the downtow looks like without the fog
远远看去
Look at that place in the distance
各家各户的太阳能板都在那里闪闪发光
The solar panels are shining there in every house
护栏
Guardrails
金属护栏
Metal guardrails
这个公园呢是以遛狗著称的
This park is known for walking dogs
也就是说特别著名
it’s well known
大家都这儿来遛狗
Everyone’s here to walk their dogs
所以你可以见到形形色色的狗
So you can see all kinds of dogs
而且这些狗
And these dogs
大多数的狗
Most dogs
都是没有上过学的
didn’t go to school
没什么教养
They’re uneducated
我就被狗扑过一次
I got attacked by a dog once
直扑我的肩膀
That dog jumped up on my shoulder
养狗的人都有一个心思
All dog owners think the same way
就认为人人都喜欢狗
Everybody likes dogs
都把他家的狗当宝贝儿
They treat his or her dog like a baby
可是不知道有人是天生怕狗的
But you didn’t know that some people are born afraid of dogs
现在我们就下山了
Now we’re going downhill
沿着这个山路一直往山下走
Follow this road all the way down the hill
我们看一下这栏杆下面的山路是什么样的
Let’s see what the road looks like below this railing
你看我们就会沿着这个山路
We’ll just follow this road
这么一直往山下走
All the way down the hill
远远地走到山下了
The far end of this road
我们马上就要出去了
We’ll be out of the park soon
快到公园的大门口了
We’re almost at the entrance now
看看这狗有多少
Look, how many dogs are here
乌央乌央的
Hordes of dogs
我们来看一下这个地图
Let’s take a look at this map
今天早上呢
This morning
我们是从这个地方开始上山
We started up the hill from this spot
一直上去
All the way up
再往上
went up
一直上
Kept up
然后沿着这条柏油路下来
And then down this paved road
一直一直下来
All the way down
现在到这个大门口
Reached the park entrance
这个地方
Here we are
