The Zigzag Trail
 

From the very first days of work at the crater there was the need to move equipment and people in and out. There are many foot trails but the Zigzag Trail was for horses and mules. It was with pack animals at first the materials were moved down to the floor of the crater.

The Zigzag Trail can be seen from the observation decks on the north rim straight across the crater on the left of the opposite side. This photo was taken near the trail from the top of the east rim near House Size Rock.
