Core textStory
计划之外的那条山路
Why this text is here: Narrate a trip whose risk conditions force a route change.
我们原计划从北门进入自然保护区，沿河谷步行到山顶。出发前管理站再三提醒，当天午后可能出现强对流天气，必须在两点前通过最高的一段山路。上午天气一时晴，一时阴，队伍仍按原计划前进。We planned to enter from the north gate and walk through the valley to the summit. Staff repeatedly warned of possible severe afternoon weather and required us to cross the highest section before two. The morning alternated between sun and cloud, so we continued.
不料十二点后风速突然上升，远处已经能听见雷声。领队没有赌天气，而是带大家转向备用路线，在游客中心等待。后来暴雨把原定路线的一处木桥冲坏。一次顺利的出行不只是到达目的地，还包括根据新信息及时放弃原计划。Unexpectedly, wind rose and thunder was audible by noon. The leader used the backup route rather than gambling on the weather. A later rainstorm damaged a bridge on the original trail. Successful travel includes abandoning a plan when new information requires it.
