Maidu`s Spirit Mountain

Native American name for the 

Sutter Buttes

source

Not found on Wikipedia. A redirect and an edit to the article on the Buttes would fix this

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sutter_Buttes

But I like that it's not found on Wikipedia.  Because a Google search for Maidu`s Spirit Mountain takes you to the linked source above, and not to Wikipedia.  Which means you find something else not found on Wikipedia.

Before modern levees and dams were built to contain the rivers, winter storms and spring run-off frequently turned the Sacramento Valley into an inland sea, making the Buttes an island refuge for California Indians, settlers and wildlife.
