The
topographic prominence of a summit is a measure of how high the summit rises above its surroundings.[4][3] The
second table below ranks the 40 most prominent summits of Washington.
The
topographic isolation (or radius of dominance) of a summit measures how far the summit lies from its nearest point of equal elevation.[5] The
third table below ranks the 20 most isolated major summits of Washington.
Of the major summits of the State of Washington,
Mount Rainier exceeds 4000 meters (13,123 feet) elevation, four peaks exceed 3000 meters (9843 feet) elevation, and 97 peaks exceed 2000 meters (6562 feet) elevation.
The 100 highest summits of Washington with at least 500 meters of topographic prominence
Of the most prominent summits of the State of Washington, Mount Rainier exceeds 4000 meters (13,123 feet) of topographic prominence, five peaks exceed 2000 meters (6562 feet), seven peaks are ultra-prominent summits with more than 1500 meters (4921 feet) of topographic prominence, and 40 peaks exceed 1000 meters (3281 feet) of topographic prominence.
The 40 most topographically prominent summits of Washington
Of the major summits of the State of Washington,
Mount Rainier exceeds 1000 kilometers (621.4 miles) of topographic isolation and 11 peaks exceed 50 kilometers (31.07 miles) of topographic isolation.

topographic prominence, and a major summit as a summit with at least 500 meters (1640 feet) of topographic prominence. All summits in this article have at least 500 meters of topographic prominence. An
ultra-prominent summit is a summit with at least 1500 meters (4921 feet) of topographic prominence.
