Bennett Mountain, also commonly known as Bennett Peak,[2] is a 1,909-foot (582 m) summit in the Sonoma Mountains of California. Located on the west edge of Annadel State Park, it separates Bennett Valley in the Russian River drainage basin from Sonoma Valley in the Sonoma Creek drainage basin.[3]
Bennett Valley was named for James N. Bennett, an emigrant from Illinois who settled in the area in the 19th century.[4]
The mountain was burned following the October 2017 Northern California wildfires.
