The author of this page appears to have been unaware of the existing
List of highest mountain peaks in Washington born in 2008 and matured in May 2015. The older list has the same data with respect to height, prominence, isolation, range, and coordinates, but is longer (it contains the top 100+ summits with 300m/1000ft+ prominence) and has a lot of first ascent data. It has an additional list of other prominent mountains, not aiming for completion but containing at least all peaks over 6000 ft high with >2000 ft prominence. It doesn't have a list of the most isolated peaks, though all but the lowest 5 are presented on the old page anyway. This new page has a lot more reference links; I chose to refer once to the peakbagger website for height, prominence, isolation and coordinates (though I fixed some coordinates where they were obviously off), rather than refer to five or six different sites with similar information for every peak. When relevant, it would be great to add some more refs to the old site, though I personally do not favor drowning a list in references for each entry when a single reference will function fine. For example, individual entries for the mountains are easily found on the peak bagger website, and one mention of the NAVD88 and NGVD29 difference ought to do as well. I realize that creating this new page was a lot of work for the author, but it is hard to understand how the old list could have been overlooked: it was well categorized (it has and had the exact same categories as this page), had nine redirects from variations on the name, and was linked to from the relevant sites (though many of these links seem to have been changed to this page now).
