A: Actually it's nickname is "Cabbage Hill."
Locally, this refers to what is actually Emigrant Hill, or I-84. According to McArthur, Cabbage Hill is actually a long spur extending down Emigrant Hill, ending at Table Rock at McKay Creek. The name "Cabbage Hill" comes from a garden containing cabbages on land owned by Mr. Huderman, near the top of the slope. It was named that by G.L. Dunn, of Gibbon, who was herding sheep in the area. The name was adopted and has been used ever since.
