List of highest points in Oregon by county facts for kids
Have you ever wondered which mountains or hills are the tallest in each part of Oregon? This article lists the highest points in every county across the state, from A to Z!
We measure all these heights using something called the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88). Think of it as a special ruler that helps scientists measure how high places are above sea level in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
Most of the heights come from the National Geodetic Survey (NGS). They are a group that carefully measures land. Other heights come from United States Geological Survey topographic maps, which are detailed maps showing land features. You can often find more details about these peaks on the Peakbagger.com website.
