List of mountain peaks of Nevada facts for kids
This article comprises three sortable tables of major mountain peaks of the U.S. State of Nevada.
The summit of a mountain or hill may be measured in three principal ways:
- The topographic elevation of a summit measures the height of the summit above a geodetic sea level. The first table below ranks the 50 highest major summits of Nevada by elevation.
- The topographic prominence of a summit is a measure of how high the summit rises above its surroundings. The second table below ranks the 52 most prominent summits of Nevada.
- The topographic isolation (or radius of dominance) of a summit measures how far the summit lies from its nearest point of equal elevation. The third table below ranks the 50 most isolated major summits of Nevada.
Highest major summits
Of the highest major summits of Nevada, eight peaks exceed 3500 meters (11,483 feet) elevation and 38 peaks exceed 3000 meters (9843 feet) elevation.
