This is a complete list of the 12 summits with elevation higher than 14,000 feet (4,267 m) in the U.S. state of California, with at least 300 feet (91.44 meters) of topographic prominence. In mountaineering parlance, these peaks are known as fourteeners. The main fourteener article has a list of all of the fourteeners in the United States, as well as references, more information about how the list is determined, and caveats about accuracy.

States The summit of a mountain or hill may be measured in three principal ways The topographic elevation of a summit measures the height of the summit above a geodetic sea level a b The topographic prominence of a summit is a measure of how high the summit rises above its surroundings c b The topographic isolation or radius of dominance of a summit measures how far the summit lies from its nearest point of equal elevation 1 Contents 1 Summits higher than 14 000 feet 2 See also 3 Notes 4 References 5 External linksSummits higher than 14 000 feet editMap this section s coordinates using
