Highest County Highpoint Lists

Highest County Highpoint Lists ^*

^* Compiled by Dave Covill

Description

This page contains two lists -

The highest elevation county highpoints in the United States with a 10,000 foot
cutoff value. There are 166 counties represented, with both Alaska and Hawaii included.
The highest elevation county highpoints in the eastern United States with a 3,000 foot
cutoff value. There are 157 counties represented.

Both lists contains two entries for each two-fer highpoint (one per county);
in accordance with the philosophy that counties, and not summits, are what highpointers collect.
County identities are followed by elevations in feet (column "Elev.") and rank.

Leftmost columns list the top 50 counties; middle columns counties ranked 51 to 100;
and right columns the counties ranked 101 to 157 (east) or 101 to 166 (entire country).
