Inscription
The Historic 35th Parallel marker remembered the explorers who followed the path of the 35th parallel across northern Arizona. This route has been journeyed by Indians, missionaries, trappers, and military men. Hell Canyon, a steep gorge, was a major obstacle for north-south travel connecting Prescott and other communities with the northern railroads.
