NPS image by Matt Johnson Though the boat trips are not operating you may still discover ancient canyon walls and other wonders, breathe in the scent of the pine and fir forests, and learn about the amazing landscape, resources, history, geology and wildlife in Curecanti along some of our hiking trails. Canyon walls composed of ancient, sable metamorphic rock with bright intrusions of blazing orange granite, pink pegmatite and glittering mica, reach heights of nearly 1,000 feet on both sides of the Black Canyon. See it for yourself along the Pine Creek trail and other trails and overlooks in Curecanti. |
