Gee Creek Falls Hike
This trail lies almost entirely inside the Congressionally designated Gee Creek Wilderness. Trail length to the falls is approximately 1.3-miles from the trailhead, making it a 2.6-mile roundtrip hike.
Point of Interest: Remnants of Mining in Wetmore
Look for the concrete water diverter in Gee Creek that was used to wash mined silica, which provided flux for furnaces processing copper. The mining occurred around the 1890s when the railroad provided a new option to access the Copper Basin in addition to the Copper Road (now US Highway 64).
