List of mountain peaks of Nevada

Boundary Peak is the highest summit in the U.S. State of Nevada.

This article comprises three sortable tables of major mountain peaks[Notes 1] of the U.S. State of Nevada.

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.[Notes 2][Notes 3] The first table below ranks the 50 highest major summits of Nevada by elevation.
  2. The topographic prominence of a summit is a measure of how high the summit rises above its surroundings.[Notes 4][Notes 3] The second table below ranks the 52 most prominent summits of Nevada.
  3. The topographic isolation (or radius of dominance) of a summit measures how far the summit lies from its nearest point of equal elevation.[Notes 5] The third table below ranks the 50 most isolated major summits of Nevada.
