While staying at
Ceci's in Gila, we took a day trip to the Catwalk in White Water Canyon, just east of
Glenwood. At one time, a large mill sat at the mouth of the canyon, powered by water piped down the canyon. The ruins of this mill are still visible. Frequent floods made the canyon a tough place to do business. We took the time to walk the one mile trail up the canyon narrows, it's well worthwhile. Whoever got the idea to install the catwalk, trail and bridges through this narrow canyon must have been crazy. The main structures are sound and *appear* to be above flood levels.
