W.R.T. 14ers, I've seen the number be 52, 53, 54 and 58. Depends on how they are classified.

The Colorado Summit Criterion: For a summit to be a ranked summit, it must have at least 300 feet of prominence. A summit's prominence is its rise above the highest saddle connecting the summit to higher ground. That highest saddle is called the prominence saddle.

Pretty silly eh??? 58 are 14k+ but only 53 fit this criteria currently...


A 14er was "Created" in 1987. Which one and for whom was it created???
