Toward the west lies Neversweat Ridge, the easternmost known presentation of Orocopia Schist.

Toward the east and northeast is the Palomas Plain, and toward the south is the Gila River.

A large portion of the dirt roads are in great condition and can be partly crossed by a two-wheel drive vehicle.

In any case, since they cross numerous sandy washes the streets are passable only with a four-wheel drive vehicle.

The western portion of the range is within the Yuma Proving Ground and consent must be acquired before entering.
