This article comprises sortable tables of the major 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. The topographic prominence of a summit is the elevation difference between that summit and the highest or key col to a higher summit. The topographic isolation of a summit is the minimum great-circle distance to a point of equal elevation. This article defines a significant summit as a summit with at least of topographic prominence, and a major summit as a summit with at least of topographic prominence. An ultra-prominent summit is a summit with at least of topographic prominence. There are 127 ultra-prominent summits in the United States. All elevations in this article include an elevation adjustment from the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD 29) to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88). For further information, please see this United States National Geodetic Survey (note ). ==Highest major summits== (詳細はhighest Colorado mountain peaks with at least 500 meters (1640.4 feet) of topographic prominence. Each of these 55 summits exceeds 4000 meters (13,123.4 feet) of topographic elevation. Note: Compare this table with the List of Colorado fourteeners which includes peaks with at least 4267.2 meters (14,000 feet) of elevation and at least 91.44 meters (300 feet) of topographic prominence. The 11 highest peaks are the same on both lists, but this list of 4000 meter peaks excludes less prominent summits like Torreys Peak, but includes prominent, although slightly lower peaks, like Mount Ouray. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of mountain peaks of Colorado」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
