Catwalk National Recreation Trail

Originally a plank-board walkway on top of a steel pipe pumping water to a local ore processing plant, the Catwalk trail is suspended 12 feet over the Whitewater Creek as it winds through a canyon. Below the Catwalk hikers can see jumping trout, pools, waterfalls and the geological remains of ancient volcanic flows.
