2018 Map of Governors Peak

About this map

Castle Hot Springs sits at the northern edge of this desert landscape, where mineral waters and the historical resort grounds meet the rugged topography of the Bradshaw Mountains. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevations such as Governors Peak and Salvation Peak, while the southeastern corner is dominated by the sprawling waters of Lake Pleasant. The map illustrates the contemporary intersection of historical desert hideaways and modern recreational development, evidenced by the Prickly Pedal Race Course winding through the hills. This 2018 survey captures the boundary between Yavapai and Maricopa counties, showing the northern reaches of Peoria as it encompasses significant water features like Pipeline Canyon and seasonal drainages including French Creek and Humbug Cr.
