State Leaders Ask President to Include Walker Ridge in Berryessa Snow Mountain Monument

Two state leaders have led members of the California Congressional delegation in asking the President to expand the Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument to include the adjacent Walker Ridge Tract. The LakeCountyNews reports the letter from Congressman John Garamendi and Senator Alex Padilla also asked the U.S. Board on Geographic Names to rename “Walker Ridge” to “Condor Ridge” and “Molok Luyuk” in the Patwin language of the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation and other Native American peoples from the area.
