[b] [c] The first table below ranks the 55 highest major summits of Colorado by elevation.
All the major mountain ranges in the state of Colorado, United States, are considered subranges of the Southern Rocky Mountains. As given in the table, topographic elevation is the vertical distance above the reference geoid , a mathematical model of the Earth's sea level as an equipotential gravitational surface.
The following sortable table comprises the 100 most topographically prominent mountain peaks of the U.S. State of Colorado. Topographic elevation is the vertical distance above the reference geoid , a mathematical model of the Earth's sea level as an equipotential gravitational surface.
