About Mojave Outdoor Project
Our Philosophy
Presence is our promise. Wherever the land calls, we answer—tools ready, story alive. The Mojave Outdoor Project restores and renews: clearing debris, rewilding lost corridors, reclaiming sacred ground. From trails to community spaces, we craft places that honor ecology and identity. Rooted in the Mojave, reaching far beyond, we answer the deeper call for visibility, care, and transformation.
Explore Ship Rock Formation, Arizona
Imagine exploring this unique site located in Santa Maria Ranch.
Ship Rock rises dramatically from the Santa Maria uplands, standing as a hard-rock island amidst a landscape of eroded terrain. This formation is carved from crystalline and metamorphosed basement rock, which is what enables it to stand out. While the surrounding landscape has gradually eroded over time, Ship Rock has maintained its distinctive shape, a prow-like silhouette resembling the bow of a ship cutting across the basin floor, which is how it got its name. This landmark is one of the small yet memorable features that define this part of western Yavapai County.
Visitor Information
Ship Rock is located on Arizona State Trust Land, and visitors must obtain a valid recreation permit to explore the area. Old ranch roads lead to the base of the formation, and the final approach requires a short walk across open desert. From the end of the track, the landscape reveals wide views of the Santa Maria Valley, the Black Mountains, and the long stretch of US‑93 leading toward the high country. Over time, wind, water, and erosion have shaped Ship Rock into its current form, providing a clear example of how solitary peaks persist in the Mojave transition zone.
