周邊交通資訊
Lyft & taxis may take time
Lyft is a bit new here so there aren't as many Lyft drivers. You may have a hard time getting taxis and Lyfts in the late evening.
攜帶物品
Bring layers & comfortable shoes
Seasonal temperatures are variable; hot days & cool nights. Temperatures can change from one town to the next as elevations change drastically so pack layers no matter the time of year. Rain is also common. Pack hiking shoes. Bring insect repellent & sunscreen wherever you go :)
