History
Despite its relatively low elevation, the officially unnamed summit is the highest point in Yolo County. Little Blue Peak didn't always have that distinction, formerly Berryessa Peak 3,057 feet (932 m) was considered to be the Yolo County highpoint. in 1991 John Sarna discovered that this summit is over 80 feet (24 m) higher than Berryessa's, therefore the county's highest.
