The Yuma East Wetlands, a collaborative effort involving the Heritage Area, Quechan Indian Tribe, City of Yuma, and Arizona Game and Fish Department, exemplifies successful desert Southwest wetlands restoration. Started in 2004, the project has revitalized nearly 400 acres from a former landfill and hobo camps into a diverse landscape of marshes, mesquite, cottonwood, and willows. This transformation has fostered habitats crucial for various wildlife species, including the endangered Ridgway's Rail (Yuma Clapper Rail) and successful breeding grounds for the endangered Yellow-Billed Cuckoo. There are nice, wide dirt paths through here, but they can be a little sandy.
