Talk:List of mountains of the United States

Untitled

Is there any interest in adding more data to expand this page beyond a simple list? Even something as simple as the height of each peak could provide visitors with a great at-a-glance summary of local points of interest. I think the little tidbits like labeling Whitney the contiguous U.S.' highest mountain are useful. How about states' highest peaks? 67.113.46.100 22:10, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

California/Sierra Nevada

What do you think about removing the Sierra Nevada sub-category under California? If we are going to separate which mountain range each mountain is in within the state, the list will get pretty big and potentially confusing (if you are scanning the list it is hard to tell Sierra Nevada is under california). --Rballou 15:30, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Multiple States

Should Granite Peak be listed under "Multiple States"? There are over 40 mountains in the United States named Granite Peak, including several in some of the same states. However, as far as I can tell, none of them belong to two or more states. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dcterr (talk • contribs) 04:02, 26 January 2007 (UTC).

But the article Granite Peak is a dab page, which covers all of them, hence Multiple States. If there are individual articles about notable Granite Peaks, that belongs in the individual state. hike395 05:20, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

List getting long

Should we somehow split the list out by state? hike395 (talk) 14:53, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

• Yes, I think it's time to split but I think, at this point, only states with a lengthy list such as California, Colorado, New York, etc. RedWolf (talk) 16:18, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Corrections

I corrected the Crestone Needle entry and the Blanca Peak entry, both under the Colorado section. Crestone Peak, not Needle is the highpoint of the two; the situation was reversed on the page when I found it. Also, someone had Blanca Peak as a Stratovolcano. This simply is not correct, Blanca is granite, which is igneous but intrusive, not extrusive as you find with a stratovolcano.
