Prominence Parent Hierarchy - not provided
Prominence Distance Ladder
1 The Mount Evans and Grays Peak prominence ranges overlap.
Assuming a uniform distribution for their true saddle elevations, there is a
47.5% probability that Mount Evans' prominence exceeds that of Grays Peak.
As Grays Peak is farther, there is only a roughly one-in-two chance that it
belongs to the true distance-based prominence hierarchy.
