1. 下羚羊谷在上羚羊谷附近，是由不同的印第安人公司经营的。他们的不同点：
上羚羊谷在地上，需坐车到景点，人多，见入口照片：

而下羚羊谷不需坐车到景点，知道的人少一些，有长长的地缝，所以阳光射进去的时间比上羚羊谷长。峡谷是在地下的，见入口及出口照片：
入口是走梯子下去，有的地方很陡的：

出口是从一个地缝里走出来的，在谷里没走回头路，整个在谷里走的时间也长一些：

2. 上羚羊谷票价根据时间有所不同，好的时间是 $40, 每团好几车人 :

下羚羊谷都是$20, 每20分钟就出一团，每团15人。

请大家多多分享去过的好地方。在此要谢谢上次版主分享的 Flower Field ，我们本来不知道这个地方，看到后就去了！秀秀的旅游帖子也都拜读了，有些去过的，感觉很亲切。还没去过的，做计划时就很有帮助了。

如果时间有限，去一个就可以了。但我还是觉得它们是各有特点的。

谢谢秀秀，期待早日看到你的新游记。

刚想起来了，以前Poly就推荐过Anniversary Narrows ，当时就查了，但看到了2/19/2015的新闻

”Land owner cuts off access to Anniversary Narrows near Lake Mead“

就以为去不成了。不知Poly或其他朋友近期有没有去过，或知道情况的，先谢过！

Anniversary Narrow 有可能近期又会开的。见 Owner 的updates：

Update -- April 20, 2015:
The narrows was dug open and rock removed as I agreed with the park service on March 13, 2015. The insurance company is coming out to inspect. -- Mark Ford, Owner

关闭的原因：
Update -- March 1, 2015: Access Road to Anniversary Narrows is Closed
I had a long phone call with the land owner today. He seems like a nice guy who is happy to spend his own money to facilitate hiker access to Anniversary Narrows, but the issues are complicated and he is being pinched between his insurance company and the BLM. The insurance company says they won't write a policy unless he can improve safety, but the BLM won't let him do the work to make it safer. The safety issues seem to revolve around loose rocks on the hillside above the gate and one mine entrance. The owner wants to knock down the loose rocks once and for all, and then put a shipping container into the mine entrance which would shore up the entrance to allow safe worker passage while being easily lockable to keep the public out. After the insurance policy is renewed, the land owner intends to improve the road through the lower narrows to a parking area. Hikers could then drive through the lower narrows (insurance thinks driving would be safer than walking), park, and walk into the Wilderness Area and the main narrows. This seems like a reasonable outcome, but it can't happen until details are worked out. The owner thinks everything could be resolved in 2 weeks if allowed to do the work.
