| no partners | | A walk along the Colorado River through the West Wetlands Park, a project of the City of Yuma and other entities to reforest the river corridor. There are a number of ways to complete the loop, but I always start with the river, and take one of the other choices back home, since I'm currently living on the west end of the park. This time I chose to walk back along the canal road.
If I ride my bike on this trail I generally go much further along the riverbank, passing the bridges, and into the next park, called Yuma East Wetlands.
One nice feature of the park is an artificial creek, which has been running recently.
It was a cloudy morning, which is pretty unusual for Yuma. It's finally autumn here, and the cottonwoods are yellow. I think we go directly from fall to spring. |
