List of mountain peaks of Arizona

This article comprises three sortable tables of major mountain peaks of the U.S. State of Arizona.

The summit of a mountain or hill may be measured in three principal ways:

  1. The topographic elevation of a summit measures the height of the summit above a geodetic sea level. The first table below ranks the 20 highest major summits of Arizona by elevation.
  2. The topographic prominence of a summit is a measure of how high the summit rises above its surroundings. The second table below ranks the 20 most prominent summits of Arizona.
  3. The topographic isolation (or radius of dominance) of a summit measures how far the summit lies from its nearest point of equal elevation. The third table below ranks the 20 most isolated major summits of Arizona.

Highest major summits

Of the highest major summits of Arizona, Humphreys Peak exceeds of elevation, five peaks exceed , and 14 peaks exceed of elevation.

Most prominent summits

Of the most prominent summits of Arizona, five peaks are ultra-prominent summits with more than of topographic prominence and 18 peaks exceed of topographic prominence.

Most isolated major summits

Of the most isolated major summits of Arizona, Humphreys Peak and Baldy Peak exceed of topographic isolation and seven peaks exceed of topographic isolation.
