This moraine gives us easy access to the tree line.

沿着碛走 我们很容易到达森林线。

We punched toeholds into the diamond waves with our ridiculous summer shoes.

我们用自己可笑的夏鞋使劲在钻石般的碛上踩出立足点。

We're going to journey across a glacial out wash and through a dense forest to reach the glacier.

我们将要穿过一片碛沉积区域以及一片茂密的森林最后到达川附近。

And we'll get onto this moraine and try and find somewhere to make camp before it gets dark.

我们要爬上这块碛 在天黑之前 找地方搭上帐篷。

The soil is mostly decomposed and disintegrated moraine material.

要是分解和分解的碛物质。

But moraines vanish like the glaciers that make them.

但是碛像形成它们的川一样消失了。

The right lateral moraine was disturbed by a large tributary glacier that occupied the basin of Cascade Creek, causing considerable complication in its structure.

右侧碛被占据喀斯喀特溪盆地的大型支流川扰动， 导致其结构相当复杂。

So also, most of the birds trace the moraines to some extent, because the forests are growing on them.

同样，大多数鸟在某种程度上追踪碛， 因为森林正在其上生长。

And where two glaciers join, their lateral moraines merge to form a medial moraine.

在两条川汇合处，它们的外侧 碛合并形成内侧碛。

The first rains fell on raw, crumbling moraines and rocks without a plant.

第一场雨落在没有植物的原始、摇摇欲坠的碛和岩石上。

By the map I have come only about ten or twelve miles, though the sun is already low in the west, showing how long I must have lingered, observing, sketching, taking notes among the glaciated rocks and moraines and Alpine flower-beds.

根据地图，我只走了大约 10 或 12 英里， 虽然太阳已经落在西边， 这表明我在川形成的岩石、碛和阿尔卑斯花坛之间逗留、观察、素描、记笔记已经多长时间了。

A beautiful variety of the bench-top lakes occurs just where the great lateral moraines of the main glaciers have been shoved forward in outswelling concentric rings by small residual tributary glaciers.

就在要川的巨大侧碛被小的残留支流川向前推成膨胀的同心环的地方，出现了各种各样的台顶湖泊。

Coming through the Little Yosemite in tranquil reaches, the river is first broken into rapids on a moraine boulder-bar that crosses the lower end of the Valley.

这条河穿过宁静河段的小优胜美地，首先在穿过山谷下端的碛巨石坝上决裂成急流。

The slant digging and down-raking action of hoofs on the steeper slopes of moraines has uprooted and buried many of the tender plants from year to year, without allowing them time to mature their seeds.

马蹄在碛的陡峭斜坡上的倾斜挖掘和向下耙动， 年复一年地连根拔起并掩埋了许多柔嫩的植物， 使它们的种子没有时间成熟。

The waters of the first come gurgling down into it over and through the moraine dam, while a second stream pours into it direct from a glacier that lies to the southeast.

第一条溪流从碛坝上方潺潺流下，第二条溪流直接从位于东南方的川注入。

And these again, reacting on the clouds, eroded immense cavernous spaces in their gray depths and swept forward the resulting detritus in ragged trains like the moraines of glaciers.

这些又一次对云层产生反应，侵蚀了灰色深处的巨大洞穴空间，并将由此产生的碎屑像川的碛一样，以参差不齐的方式向前冲去。

Higher there are several small terminal moraines of residual glaciers shoved forward at right angles against the grand simple lateral of the main Tuolumne Glacier.

更高处有几个小的残余川终端碛以直角向前推进， 与图奥勒米川的大单侧川形成直角。

Rugged spurs, and moraines, and huge, projecting buttresses began to shut me in.

崎岖的山脊、碛和巨大的、突出的扶壁开始把我关在里面。

So I crept to a low ridge of moraine boulders on the edge of a narrow garden meadow, and in this meadow I felt pretty sure the bear must be.

所以我爬到狭窄的花园草地边缘的碛巨石低矮的山脊上，我很确定熊一定就在这片草地上。

No other pine on the Range is so regularly planted as this one, covering moraines that extend along the sides of the high rocky valleys for miles without interruption.

山脉上没有其他松树像这棵松树一样定期种植， 覆盖着沿着高岩石山谷两侧延伸数英里的碛， 没有中断。
