Off to the Cat Walk

On July 7, we all went to the Cat Walk. The Cat Walk is a 250 foot causeway that began as a support for a gas pipe. It is in Whitewater Canyon and is only about 20 feet above the stream bed. But in places the canyon is 250 feet deep so you look up at sheer walls and down to waterfalls and a rushing stream. The canyon is often only about 20 feet wide. Over a 1.1 mile trail you go over the Cat Walk and then continue to climb and climb and climb! There are a couple of other bridges including a swinging bridge which my mean, vicious husband tried to scare me on. I was crossing and he was ahead of me shaking the bridge! Bad man. It is a really beautiful hike and sometimes you can even catch your breath and enjoy it! The altitude coupled with the steep trails made it quite a challenge but the views were worth it!
