Yuma Crossing, used since prehistoric times, played a significant part in the development of the West and continues to influence the affairs of the state and the nation. The Yuma City-County Bicentennial Commission in the spring of 1974 conceived the idea of establishing Yuma Crossing Park to commemorate the past and future of this historic spot and inaugurated the project on November 29, 1975.

Marker can be reached from North 4th Avenue.
