List Description

This is a Master List of the 100 steepest peaks in Washington that have at least 400 feet of clean prominence each. This list uses a normalized average of the average angle figures at three given distances(100m/800m/1600m) from a summit. This is the best measure for all-around vertical drop for a peak.

Unlike all other major Washington peakbagging lists (such as county highpoints, county greatest prominence points, 2000-foot prominence peaks, isolation peaks), this Top 100 Steepness Master List does not contain any mountains located in the southwestern, southeastern, or northeastern areas of Washington.

Special thanks to the efforts of Craig Willis and Tim Worth leading to the creation of this list.
