Catwalk











Moved from City of Rocks to Glenwood N.M. Found a spot to dry camp and set-up for 2 nights in the National Forest so we could hike to an are called the catwalk. The trail is about 3 miles round trip up a canyon with a creek flowing through it.










Part of the trail is over a suspended catwalk anchored into the rock walls over the water. There was several footbridges that crisscross the water. The catwalk was part of a trail to maintain a water source for a gold mining operation there back in the 30's and 40's., not much left of the old operation other than a few foundations.

  1. We didn't get to the catwalk when we were there and it is on my list of things to see someday.
