It is located on the northern edge Barrio An\u00f3n in Ponce,[3][4] close to the border with the municipality Jayuya,[5] and is part of the Cordillera Central (Central Mountain Range). It is known as El Cerro de los M\u00e1rtires (“Mountain of the Martyrs”) and characterized as the most infamous peak in Puerto Rico, due to the 1978 Cerro Maravilla murders which took place here.[6]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Table of ContentsLocation and access[edit]Cerro Maravilla incident[edit]Climate[edit]See also[edit]References[edit]Location and access[edit]The peak is located at the end of the 0.5\u00a0km-long Puerto Rico Highway 577, which is accessible via Puerto Rico Highway 143, traveling either westbound or eastbound. PR-143 is a secondary two-way, two-lane mountainous road that is relatively well traveled. The peak’s coordinates are: 18\u00b009\u203211\u2033N 66\u00b033\u203215\u2033W\ufeff \/ \ufeff18.15306\u00b0N 66.55417\u00b0W\ufeff \/ 18.15306; -66.55417.The height of the mountain makes for some interesting sights. For example, on clear days both the northern and southern coasts of the island can be appreciated simultaneously. In the winter season, the air is crisp and the temperature at night will usually fluctuate between the 40s and 60s degrees Fahrenheit. The chirping of the familiar “coquis” is prominent after nightfall.

This controversy has since turned the mountain into a meeting point for supporters of the independence of the Puerto Rican Commonwealth to gather annually to remember the murdered activists and condemn the current colonial status.Climate[edit]Cerro Maravilla has a subtropical highland climate (Cfb) under the K\u00f6ppen climate classification. The surrounding area over 1,000 meters (3,300 feet) is one of the few places in the island to have a true temperate climate.[citation needed] Although the temperature remains mild year round, night temperatures in winter may reach the mid 40s at times.[citation needed]Climate data for Cerro Maravilla, Puerto Rico (1981-2010 normals, extremes 1969-2012)MonthJanFebMarAprMayJunJulAugSepOctNovDecYearRecord high \u00b0F (\u00b0C)85(29)87(31)81(27)82(28)85(29)90(32)87(31)85(29)88(31)85(29)88(31)83(28)90(32)Average high \u00b0F (\u00b0C)65.5(18.6)65.8(18.8)66.6(19.2)67.2(19.6)68.0(20.0)70.4(21.3)71.6(22.0)71.4(21.9)71.1(21.7)70.6(21.4)68.7(20.4)66.0(18.9)68.6(20.3)Daily mean \u00b0F (\u00b0C)60.8(16.0)60.7(15.9)61.5(16.4)62.5(16.9)63.9(17.7)66.2(19.0)67.0(19.4)66.9(19.4)66.5(19.2)66.2(19.0)64.0(17.8)61.8(16.6)64.0(17.8)Average low \u00b0F (\u00b0C)56.0(13.3)55.7(13.2)56.4(13.6)57.9(14.4)59.8(15.4)62.0(16.7)62.3(16.8)62.4(16.9)61.8(16.6)61.7(16.5)59.3(15.2)57.6(14.2)59.4(15.2)Record low \u00b0F (\u00b0C)43(6)40(4)43(6)41(5)45(7)51(11)52(11)52(11)52(11)52(11)51(11)40(4)40(4)Average precipitation inches (mm)3.81(97)3.64(92)5.12(130)8.57(218)12.14(308)7.06(179)6.09(155)10.39(264)13.68(347)15.66(398)9.03(229)4.13(105)99.32(2,522)Average precipitation days (\u2265 0.01 in)11.811.211.714.116.411.811.415.217.620.015.012.0168.2Source: NOAA[7][8]See also[edit]References[edit]     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/cerro-maravilla-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Cerro Maravilla – Wikipedia"}}]}]
