California County High Points, primary list, Revised October 2017. Arranged generally alphabetically by county. There are 58 counties in California, but there are only 56 peaks since two peaks are on the county lines and are the high points of both counties. The counties sharing a peak are Tulare/Inyo and Colusa/Lake. Key to Column Headings: ID = Sequential numbering. County = The name of the county. If two are listed then the peak is the high point of both counties. Peak Name = The name as shown on the topo map. A Pxxxx ft. with the elevation of the peak if it is not named on the map. Names in parentheses are alternate unofficial names for the peak. CL = The climbing classification of the peak. EL,ft = Elevation in feet. EL,m = Elevation in meters. EL = How the elevation is shown on the map. A BM or VABM entry indicates a brass survey monument or benchmark is at the summit. UTM, E = The UTM Easting coordinate in meters. UTM, N = The UTM Northing coordinate in meters. Zone = The UTM zone. Topo Map (7.5 min) = The topo map the peak is on. YR = The year of the topo map data was taken from. Note: UTM coordinates are in NAD 27 datum. |
