Aubrey Peak Wilderness

The Aubrey Peak Wilderness is a 15,400-acre (6,232 ha) wilderness administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The wilderness is located in northwest Arizona in the southwest of Mohave County, a region of the southeastern Mojave Desert's extension into northwest Arizona.

The wilderness is one of two in the Rawhide Mountains, which border the north bank of the west-flowing Bill Williams River. The other wilderness is on both sides of the river, the Rawhide Mountains Wilderness; the section south of the river is in the northeast of the Buckskin Mountains, and the southeast of the Rawhides. The Buckskin Wilderness is on the western border of Alamo Lake, of Alamo Lake State Park.

The Aubrey Peak Wilderness is about 15 miles (24 km) northeast of Parker Dam, California on the Colorado River, near its confluence with the Bill Williams.

The confluence has the following sites:

1. Bill Williams National Wildlife Preserve
2. Buckskin Mountain State Park
3. Cattail Cove State Park
4. Parker Dam
