Looking north over the Colorado River near the Anza crossing.

The Anza colonizing expedition crossed the Colorado several miles above this point at Prison Hill in Yuma about mid-picture displayed here. The expedition crossed the river several miles above this point then returned down river to a point across the Colorado from this location.
