Isanaklesh Peaks, formerly known as Squaw Tits, is a summit in Maricopa County, Arizona, in the United States.[2] with an elevation of 2,478 feet (755 m).

The peak was named from its resemblance to a human breast.[3] However, the term squaw is a derogatory racial epithet targeting the Indigenous people of North America, and Indigenous women in particular.
