The Growler Valley is a valley of south-central Arizona west of Ajo, Arizona.

Contents

Growler Valley is a 65-mile (105-km) long valley paralleling the Growler Mountains on the east-(attached to the Little Ajo Mountains), and the Granite Mountains on the west.

The Growler Wash transits the valley northwesterly, and turns west to meet the San Cristobal Wash at the north end of the Granite Mountains. The Growler Valley is the southeast portion of the San Cristobal Wash Watershed and drains from the north perimeter of the Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. Drainages south flow into northern Sonora, Mexico. The northwesterly-flowing San Cristobal drainage disappears into the ground before reaching the Gila River Valley.

The Growler Valley & Growler Mountains are located at 32.2428-N, 113.0279-W.

The closest access points to the Growler are by dirt road from Ajo, Arizona on State Route 85.

The north of the valley is accessed from State Route 85 through the Childs Valley at about 45 miles (72 km).
