Flashback 回顧

At our first visit in 2017, there was no fee, the dirt roads were primitive, and the observation decks were not fenced. This time, in 2023, the park is well maintained, with asphalt parking lots, accessible trails, shade pavilions, and railings at the edge of the overlook's viewing platform. Now we pay $10 per car to enter the park.
我們2017年第一次去的時後，還沒收費，泥土路也比較原始，觀景臺也沒有圍欄。這次2023年，園區整理的很好，舖柏油的停車場、無障礙步道、遮陽亭、及觀景臺增添圍欄。現在需要付10元一車入園。
