List of mountains in Utah explained

Mountains in Utah are numerous and have varying elevations and prominences.

Kings Peak, in the Uinta Mountains in Duchesne County, Utah, is the highest point in the state and has the greatest prominence. It has elevation 13528feet^[1] and prominence 6348feet.^[2] It also has topographic isolation of 166.6miles, highest amongst summits of Utah having at least 500 meters of prominence.

For lists of the top 50 peaks in Utah by elevation, prominence, and topographic isolation, see List of mountain peaks of Utah. This "List of mountains in Utah" should include all of those (but does not yet) and more.
