List of California fourteeners


In the mountaineering parlance of the Western United States, a fourteener is a mountain peak with an elevation of at least. This is a complete list of the 12 fourteeners in the U.S. state of California with at least of topographic prominence. The main fourteener article has a list of all of the fourteeners in the United States, as well as references, more information about how the list is determined, and caveats about accuracy.
The summit of a mountain or hill may be measured in three principal ways:
  1. The topographic elevation of a summit measures the height of the summit above a geodetic sea level.
  2. The topographic prominence of a summit is a measure of how high the summit rises above its surroundings.
  3. The topographic isolation of a summit measures how far the summit lies from its nearest point of equal elevation.
