Yuma, Arizona (Kyma, Kecy) – Telegraph paths are commonly used as highway paths through the Gila Mountains on Interstate 8, but these same mountains serve as popular outdoor movements.
The local hike was named after a telegraph line that ran to Marico Powells, Arizona, Arizona, which was expanded by the US Army to Prescott Arizona in 1873.
During this time, the main use of the mountain was for transportation.
The military and settlers also used it for trade and communication.
In 2023, more than 61 million people participated in the US at least once hiking activity, according to Statista Dot COM.
The Telegraph Pass in Yuma County gives people the opportunity to become part of the trend.
“I think it’s intense. It’s easy, it gets to the actual start of the summit, kills you, kills the pain, but it’s great when you get to the top,” said local hiker Anna Springer. I did.
“It gives you the opportunity to be disconnected from everything and try and achieve something you don’t normally achieve in your days. We’ve added fellow hiker Stephan Springer.
Depending on the starting point, the hike is approximately 5 1/2 miles long and 1400 feet tall.
It takes an average time of about 2-3 hours to complete.
“I take the time and take it easy and take breaks if necessary, but I’ve seen people 80-90 years old in the mountains, so if they can do that, you can too,” Stephen said. I said that.
However, before you start your hike, it is important to remember some safety tips, especially if you have never climbed a mountain before.
“The hiking plan is when it’s cool outside, so we’re still dehydrated, as we’re still sweating. So, get enough water with you and get caught up in the side of the Telegraph Pass Make sure you’re looking at the weather you don’t want to, it’s going to be too hot and too cold,” said Captain David Padilla of Yuma Fire Station.
When you reach the bottom of the mountain, the fire department recommends that people stay on paved roads as they head to the top of the mountain.
However, in the event of an emergency, the fire department has the best equipment to come to the rescue.
“In addition to 100 feet, we carry multiple rope bags of various hardware equipment, carabiners and harnesses. The fire department has around 30 people specialized in rescue technician level.” Colonel Padilla said.
Local firefighter Ty Fritz says he’s been hiking the mountains since he was a child, and that means a lot to him and his family.
“We’re an active family that we work together and like to do such good exercise, so we’re out in the hills, so we were close to our home so we could get over it. That’s how it goes together,” Fritz said.
A special tradition that hikers want to participate in means that they are part of a group that has completed the hike by signing their name on a small book on the top of the mountain.
“It was like I finally made it, like I knew Yuma’s tallest mountains. It was a very special moment when my family made it special,” Fritz continued. I did.
He explains one once unique view that reaches the top where both Yuma and Wellton can be seen.
“It makes our small town feel much smaller. If you’re hiking early in the morning, you’re looking down at these fields and just making them feel beautiful.
Once you’ve taken your vision, sign your name, see a message from the infamous mystery woman and are ready to go back. The fire department is giving advice to people a little too enthusiastic. .
“Late yourself and be able to control yourself along the way is just as challenging as you are when you are climbing. Healthy, but I want to make sure they haven’t gone too far.” Colonel Padilla said.
Hiking is a good form of exercise to stay healthy and healthy, but it also comes with other health benefits.
“It helps to be involved in anxiety, reduced anxiety, reduced depression, right, and mindfulness,” said Dr. Lorena Cancino Gacharna, a geriatric psychiatrist.
Dr. Gacharna hikes telegraph paths regularly in winter months.
She explains how the hike feels, what to think, and the challenging path.
“After you know you’re going to the top, there’s always this huge sense of accomplishment, and sometimes even the struggle, there are days when you feel more tired than other days.
Dr. Gacharna explains how it will positively affect your state of mind.
“It allows you to stay in the moment and is a very good way for you to interact with people and people with family and friends while enjoying nature,” Dr. Gacharna said.
