Colorado River, Parker, AZ (Jack)
In 1937, a highway bridge was completed across the Colorado River connecting Arizona to California, thus ending the ferry service that had been in operation for 27 years by Joe Bush and his wife, Nellie T.
The area near Parker and Lake Havasu City on the California / Arizona border has attracted people, wildlife, and vegetation along the river canyon creating the "Thread of Life."
The byway highlights scenic, natural, historic, and prehistoric values along an 11-mile road that winds adjacent to the Colorado River, providing recreational and leisure time activities.
