Sorry, but Mt. Hood was named after Lord (Samuel) Hood, a British Admiral at the Battle of the Chesapeake. The Indians called it Wy'east.

Mt. Hud and the Source of the Sarsar Wind

Right that I can believe and they even explain that Mount Hood, called
*Wy'east* by the *now-extinct* Multnomah tribe... (Hmm)

OK Lord Hud, this settle it. An now-extinct tribe named it otherwise...



Many tribes have been thought to be extinct until a few of their descendants turned up and wanted to open a casino!
