Name

Great list! And someone finally figured out how to directly link to NGS datasheets: THANK YOU!

Shouldn't this article (and similar ones) be named List of mountains in California ? hike395 05:12, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article contains four sortable tables of mountain peaks. List articles should ideally contain a single ordered list with perhaps some annotation. --Buaidh 17:10, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mammoth Mountain

Great list but it is missing Mammoth Mountain, which should be both in elevation at 11.053 ft. and prominence at about 3.000 ft.

Thanks, good catch. Mammoth Mountain should be #29 on the elevation list, although it misses the prominence and isolation lists. Yours aye, Buaidh 15:42, 25 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Mokelumne Peak

How come Mokelumne Peak seems to be completely missing from WP? Not "major" somehow? Dicklyon (talk) 04:53, 27 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

OK, now it's a "sub-stub". Good start. Thanks. Dicklyon (talk) 05:59, 28 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

New York Mountain is in Colorado

New York Mountain is on the list but it is in Colorado. It's currently listed as #31 under, "The 50 most topographically prominent summits of California" https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/New_York_Mountain 2600:1700:7A51:10B0:B13E:688C:D8C2:A5D5 (talk) 15:44, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Indigenous names

Hi, I'd like to create a new column that includes the indigenous names of peaks and its corresponding tribe when not identified as such. This could be notated as such:

Rank	Mountain peak	Indigenous name	Mountain range	Elevation	Etc....
1	Mount Whitney	Tumanguya (Paiute)	Sierra Nevada	14,505 ft	etc

Missing Mt Muir

Mount Muir is missing from the list. I'm not certain if this is deliberate or not, but Muir is a distinct separate summit nearly a mile south of Mount Whitney, and it is over 14,000 feet. Seems like it should be here. Lizardite (talk) 18:51, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

To be on the list, a peak must have at least 500m of topographic prominence. Mount Muir has 91m. — hike395 (talk) 13:27, 4 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
