Background
The above list was compiled by Jeff Howbert in 1996 for an article in Pack and Paddle. The list uses a 500 foot clean prominence rule for each peak (this excludes even named peaks such as Matterhorn which only has 306 feet of clean prominence). See the link to his site below for the article, list, and a map that shows the general location of all the summits. See the link to peakbagger for a slightly different list. Pam Otley and Jay Avery became the first two people to complete the Howbert list. See link below for information.
Extra Summits
Newer maps give some more detailed prominence measures. Thus nine extra peaks may qualify for the Howbert List. I have labeled this list as "Howbert + 9". The same surveys have at times raised some peaks as to move around the order of peaks on the list. As to my knowledge no peaks have been disqualified from the list for one reason or another. The extra nine peaks are listed in the following table. You may also find a link to my custom Howbert list on Lists of John in the external links below. Extra Nine Peaks for the Howbert List

Elkhorn Peakhttp://www.summitpost.org/elkhorn-peak/956213 I added the Elkhorn Peak page a couple years ago. More commonly known as Elkhorn Peak rather than Elkhorn Mountain. (I know that means there is more than one on the list then.) Dollar Ridge has also been added. I believe you also have it listed as Dollar-N Imnaha http://www.summitpost.org/dollar-ridge/214483
