Nice post John, really enjoyed it. Dale and I (ask Leslie who we are haha) attended Humboldt State and many of our early dates were to "Patrick's Point". I never thought about how it was named, it just was. Do you know if Sumeg Rock is what we knew as " Wedding Rock" at the park?
Fresno County is currently fighting tooth and nail to keep from renaming "Squaw Valley" to Yokohl Valley.
Thanks, Herb! I'm glad you liked it. Leslie tells me you and she are Ag Leadership pals (she still has a small peace sign lapel pin you gave her during your class activities). Regarding the connection between Sumeg and Wedding Rock, I can't say for sure but I believe they are one and the same. That's a very distinctive formation on the peninsula, and it's unlikely that there would be an indigenous name for something less prominent in its vicinity.
