We are all Kings when viewing such splendor, thus I decree “Kings’ Peak/ Kings’ Range”‘ it is and shall forever be

Nope, it’s King Peak and Queen Peak – King Range…sorry, I have a little problem with people changing historic place names. The photo is wonderful, from a south-easterly view I don’t often see.

I, too, have a map with ‘King’s’ on it, but most of the older-timers that I’ve spoken with over the years have stated it was ‘King’ and ‘Queen’…Hadley’s, Smith’s, and others. I know BLM has ‘King’ on all their maps, but I also have an issue with their renaming ‘Horse Mt. Road’, which runs from Wilder to Shelter Cove Roads, as ‘King Peak Road’. ‘Bull Creek Road’ is another name lost to history as well…now it’s Mattole Road, all the way from Ferndale to 101. Dutyville Road should be spelled Doodyville, after a landowner up Mattole Canyon Creek. I guess I’m just getting old (and I’m still considered a newcomer). Thanks for the discussion, Kym, and all the wonderful photos!

Kenny at Ukiah “one Irons” driving range says he is a decedent of the Kings which the range is named after.

King’s Peak is part of the King’s Range. At least that’s how I remember it from the olden days of the 70s and 80s.

Is there still a makeshift landing strip in King’s Range?
