Allegedly the Donner Party set up a camp of about 2 miles for around 5 days at the base of Rattlesnake Mountain. Donner Springs Neighborhood is at the base of this mountain. The party rested in this camp prior to continuing their journey to California through the Sierra Nevada Mountains, where they met their eventual demise.
