Gila Bend Mountains
The Gila Bend Mountains are a  long mountain range of the north-central Sonoran Desert southwest of Phoenix, Arizona and in southwest Maricopa County.

The famous Gila Bend of the river changes the west-southwest flow to south-flowing, then back to west-flowing. Painted Rock Reservoir and the Dendora Valley are nestled at the south of the Gila Bend Mountains, the monolith which causes the diversion of the Gila Bend. Gila Bend, Arizona is located at the southeast of the bend, on Interstate 8. Centennial Wash borders the north of the range and has its junction with the Gila River in the Arlington State Wildlife Area. Peaks, and landforms
