Vulture Mountains
The Vulture Mountains is a long,〔Utah DeLorme Atlas, p. 48.〕 arid, low-elevation mountain range located in northwest Maricopa County, Arizona, United States. It is in the north perimeter region of the Sonoran Desert. The Arizona transition zone mountain ranges lie north and northeast, just north of Wickenburg, Arizona. The Yarnell Hill, about north of Wickenburg, rising into the Weaver Mountains to Yarnell, marks the dramatic elevation rise from the desert. It is also a viewpoint southwest and southeast of the desert regions, including the Vulture Mountains.
==Description and geography==
The Vulture Mountains are about long, and east of center, about wide; the range is somewhat crescent shaped, mainly trending east–west, and narrowing westwards. The northeast is followed by the course of a southeast stretch of the Hassayampa River; the river turns due-south west of Morristown, on US 60, making the east terminus of the range about 7 mi wide, at the rivers floodplain. The Hassayampa enters the north of the Hassayampa Plain, so a small river canyon region lies at the Vulture Mountain's northeast, with the Wickenburg Mountains northeast, and the Hieroglyphic Mountains east.
The high point of the range is Vulture Peak, (),〔Arizona Road & Recreation Atlas, p. 40.〕 at the center east of the range. Another major peak anchors the west region of the range, Black Butte, at ).〔Utah DeLorme Atlas, p. 48.〕
