In order for a peak to be on this list, it must meet two criteria. First, its summit altitude must be over 11,000 feet. Second, its prominence must be over 300 feet or potentially over 300 feet, based on the topographic map of the peak. This means that in order to reach another, higher peak one must descend at least 300 feet from its summit. Peaklist.org has a thorough explanation of prominence on its website.

Here is a 3D map of Mountaineer Peak showing its altitude and prominence. Notice how Point 11,452 does not pass the 300 foot prominence threshhold.

Peak vs. Point - This map shows why Mountaineer Peak, while shorter in altitude than Borah's North Peak, is on the list, while Borah North is not.

The one exception to this rule is No Regret Peak of the the Lost River Range, which has a maximum possible prominence of 292 feet. It is included as a ranked peak because many in Lost River peak bagging circles have considered it a seperate peak.

This isn't the first list of Idaho's highest peaks. Tom Lopez, in his book Idaho a Climbing Guide, has a list of many peaks over 10,000 feet as an appendix. His website has a list of Idaho's Top 100. The owner of Peakbagger.com also has a fairly complete list of Idaho 11,000 foot peaks. Here's a comparison:

In order to make the list of Idaho 11ers and 12ers more easily viewed, I have made the list downloadable in a few formats: Google Earth (.kmz file) GPS Exchange Format (.gpx file) National Geographic TOPO! v. 3 (.tpo) Thanks to Super Dave for creating this file. National Geographic TOPO! v. 2 (.tpg) To open, first launch the map region that you own and then go to the File pull down menu and choose "Merge .tpg File". Printable List (.pdf file) Also available for download are the Digital Raster Graphics of the area. DRG's are the scanned, high resolution copies of the original USGS topographic quadrangles. You can find maps of the entire state at the Idaho Department of Lands website. In addition to that, the Digital Elevation Models of those quadrangles are available. You can view these with programs such as 3DEM. The entire state is available at GIS Data Depot. Direct links to the quadrangles that contain the summits on this list are to the right. Note: the DEM urls are incorrect. I will fix those as soon as I get all the correct file names.

(Note: Some of the websites have reorganized their url system, and end up as dead links. I'll work on this problem.) This page is designed to give as much information about each peak as possible. Here is an overview of the links available:

Unoffical Name
Latitude:   43.7987	Topozone map	Rank: 21
Longitude:   -114.1522	Terraserver Aerial Photo	Prominence: 825 ft

Area managed by Salmon-Challis National Forest - Lost River Ranger District. Foothills managed by BLM Challis Office.

Most links are self explanatory. "Latitude" links to the Montana State University Graphical Locater. "Longitude" links to the benchmark search at Geocaching.com for the area surrounding the peak. Clicking on the prominence measure will link to the Topozone map of the prominence saddle. Note that many of the 11ers on the western end have gaps in aerial photo coverage.

To link directly to a mountain, just add "#" following the name of the peak to this page's url (if the list sections are not collapsed). Example.
