Mount Union

Mount Union is a high mountain peak at an elevation of 2.431m (7,975ft) above the sea level, located in central Yavapai County, Arizona, in USA.

The road to the summit, located in the Prescott National Forest, is gravel, rocky, tippy and bumpy at times. It was built in the 1860s The road is usually impassable in winters. Great trail for experienced wheelers. Avoid driving in this area if unpaved mountain roads aren't your strong point. The road comes within a mile of the peak, and most passenger cars can handle these roads in dry conditions. At the summit there’s a fire tower and a communication antenna. Stay away if you're scared of heights. Expect a trail pretty steep. Wet conditions may make for tough driving along the muddy road. The peak gets its name from Union sympathizers during the Civil War. The mountain's summit is the highest point of the Bradshaw Mountains.
