About Buckskin Mountains

The Buckskin Mountains are a small mountain range located in northwestern Arizona, near the border with Utah. This remote and rugged range is part of the Basin and Range province, featuring steep, rocky slopes and dramatic cliffs. The terrain is characterized by deep canyons, dry washes, and scattered pinyon-juniper woodlands. Despite their arid environment, the Buckskins provide important habitat for a variety of desert wildlife species.
