2021 Map of Walnut Grove

About this map

The Hassayampa River flows southward through this high-desert portion of Yavapai County, carving a path between the eastern foothills of the Weaver Mountains and the rising slopes of the Prescott National Forest. The community of Walnut Grove remains a central point of interest, established near the river banks and serving as a historical touchstone for the surrounding ranching and mining country. The landscape is defined by deep drainages and ridges, including Mahoney Ridge and Black Mtn, where numerous gulches such as French Gulch and Placerita Gulch once drew prospectors seeking mineral wealth. Local transit and land use are etched into the terrain by named routes like W Wagoner Rd and White Head Ranch Rd, which connect remote water sources like Moores Spring and Collins Spring to the main settlement and its nearby Walnut Grove Cem.
