Pickaninny Buttes is a granite summit in San Bernardino County, California, reaching 2,999 feet in elevation. Identified as a landform in the desert interior of California, it is notable for its rocky composition and butte-like shape. The name has drawn criticism because it contains the ethnic slur “pickaninny.” Beyond that controversy, the available context presents it simply as a summit whose significance lies in its physical form and location within the county.
