Arrastra Mountain Wilderness, Protected wilderness area in Mohave, Yavapai, and La Paz Counties, Arizona.

The Poachie Range within Arrastra Mountain Wilderness rises to 5,000 feet, featuring volcanic formations and rivers across 129,800 acres of diverse terrain.

The Arizona Desert Wilderness Act of 1990 established this area under the management of the Bureau of Land Management Colorado River District.

The natural pools of Peoples Canyon stretch for two miles, bordered by hundreds of native sycamores, willows, and cottonwoods that support local wildlife.

Visitors require high-clearance vehicles to access the wilderness via 17-Mile Road from Highway 93 or through Palmerita Ranch from Wickenburg.

Artillery Peak stands as a 1,200-foot volcanic plug west of Big Sandy River, while orange mudstone formations define the southern mountain edges.
