Muggins Mountain Wilderness

The Muggins Mountain Wilderness is a 7,711 acre wilderness area in the U.S. state of Arizona. It is located approximately 38 mi east of Yuma, Arizona in the Muggins Mountains and adjacent to the agricultural Dome Valley and Gila River. The wilderness area is made up of the highest peak in the southern section of Muggins Mountains, Klothos Temple at 1666 ft. Muggins Peak is adjacent to the peak southeastwards, at 1424 ft. Three deeply cut washes drain the southwest border of the wilderness, Twin Tanks Wash, Muggins Wash, and Morgan Wash. Muggins Wash is the access point to the wilderness, by way of County 7th Street.

The ruggedness of the Muggins Mountain Wilderness is ideal for activities such as day hiking, backpacking, rock climbing, sightseeing, photography, and studying nature, native plants, or wildlife.

The nearest communities are Dome, Ligurta, or Wellton in the Dome or Mohawk Valleys; the Fortuna Foothills suburb of Yuma is located west over the Gila Mountains (Yuma County).
