List Description

Sources

Book County High Points by Andy Martin; combination of two lists compiled 2000 by Edward Earl, Andy Martin, Roy Schweiker, and Ron Tagliapietra.
List generation helped by Edward Earl's WinProm program.
Posts made to the Yahoo Prominence Group online forum.
Prominence values in this list may not agree 100% with sources, due to different interpretations of key col spot elevations and out-dated peak elevations in the PBC Database.
