The range is northwest–southeast trending, but more due east on the east end. The northeast, east, and southeast is separated from the Bradshaw Mountains by the
Hassayampa River. A list of peaks in the range, from the northwest are: Ritter Peak, Weaver Peak, Rocky Boy Peak, Antelope Peak, Rich Hill, Weaver Mountain, and Wades Butte. Sam Powell Peak and Seal Mountain border the Hassayampa River. Weaver Peak is about west of Yarnell. At the west and southwest, Cottonwood Creek and a valley separates the Weaver Mountains from a smaller mountain range to the southwest, the
Date Creek Mountains. ==History and attractions==
