Little Blue Peak is a mountain in the Northern Coast Ranges of California. The peak, located on the Little Blue Range very close to the Yolo-Lake borderline, rises to an elevation of about 3,120 ft (951 m).[1][2] Despite its relatively low elevation, the unmarked mountain is the county highpoint of Yolo County.[1][2] However, Little Blue Peak didn't always have that distinction, since Berryessa Peak was considered to be the Yolo County highpoint up until 1991, the year John Sarna discovered this mountain.[2] Some snow falls on this peak during the winter.[3]
