美国北卡罗莱纳州立大学的学生们不久将要爬墙,他们急切地期待着学校新建的卡米契尔体育馆分馆从下月起能正式开放,这样,他们就可以登上三楼,在有经验的登山教练指导下,向一面钢筋吹塑水泥制成的80呎长、28呎高的岩石峭壁进军。据悉,这是世界上最逼真的室内攀登墙。它岩石裸露、山壁徒峭、裂缝密布。学校的负责人希望这面墙能进一步推动北卡罗莱纳州立大学广泛开展的户外娱乐活动。这面墙的雕塑家德威特·豪兰德说:“我们至今还没有发现第二堵这样的墙,无论是看还是爬,你就象是在攀登一座真山。”豪兰德曾经为北卡罗莱纳动物园设计过假山石。这面墙是北卡罗莱纳州立大学的前任登山教练约翰·伯考梦寐以求的,共花费三十七万五千美元的学生经费。体育系开设了登山、负重步行、潜水等课程,该系主任理查德·劳弗说:“学生们对于这种形式的户外运动饶有兴趣,我们把工作重点放在这个方面。”现

It is reported that this is the world’s most realistic indoor climbing wall. Its bare rock, mountain cliffs, cracks. The school’s head of staff hopes the wall will further promote North Carolina State University’s extensive outdoor entertainment. The wall sculptor DeWitt Howland said: “We have not found a second such wall so far, whether looking or climbing, you are like climbing a real mountain.” Howland used to be North Carolinarium zoo design rockery. The wall was coveted by North Carolina State University’s former mountaineering coach John Burk, spending a total of $ 375,000 on student finances. The Department of Physical Education offers courses such as mountaineering, weight walking and diving, said Richard Lloyd, the department’s director. “Students are interested in this form of outdoor exercise and we focus on this.”
