Cottonwood Point Wilderness
Cottonwood Point Wilderness is a protected wilderness area on the Arizona Strip in the U.S. state of Arizona. The area consists of two "peninsulas" dividing Cottonwood Canyon, covered with pinyon, juniper, and sagebrush. The high point stands at 6322 feet on the western peninsula, rising from the Arizona-Utah border.
The Cottonwood Point Wilderness was established in 1984 under the Arizona Wilderness Act becoming part of the National Wilderness Preservation System and is managed by the Bureau of Land Management. Canaan Mountain Wilderness lies contiguously to the north across the Arizona-Utah border.
