100 Tallest World Mountains By Prominence
DirectionsName the world’s 100 highest summits according to prominence…Prominence is the elevation of a summit relative to the highest point to which one must descend before reascending to a higher summit. Think of it as the height of a mountain relative to the closest higher mountain. So a mountain that is the highest of anything nearby will have a high prominence, while nearby mountains that are close but not as tall will have a relatively low prominence. No need to type Mt/Mount/etc.
Ahh okay but could you make one from sea level
A lot of mountains like makalu and cho oyu aren’t counting if I put them in
keep in mind per directions this is not just height – it is by ‘prominence’
I chose this as an alternative to just world’s 100 tallest by elevation above sea level as the answers to that are almost entirely obscure peaks in the Himalayas.
