List DescriptionThis list combines all the peaks that are either the highest, most prominent, or most isolated in all the 50 US states. The list only contains 95 peaks, not 150, because in most states one peak comes out #1 in two or three categories. You can sort the list by "section" or category, to see which states have dominant peaks and which have three separate peaks.
Other notes:
- The most prominent peak in several states is not positively known. However, only the most likely contender is shown fore a state most prominent peak, to keep the list simple. You can look at this list here to see a more detailed breakdown.
- The District of Columbia is not counted for the purposes of this list.
