Cool. You should make an "Isolation Lists" master page onto which you would attach all of these list pages. Sort of like this Prominence Lists master page (like this). I assume you're going to make Washington's too (a list I completed around 2008 I think).
I keep waiting for county greatest isolation lists to become the next cool hiking thing! County Highpoints are sooo last decade.
I've actually been toying with the idea myself, and I agree it is a great idea. I would make a Washington isolation peaks page, but that one actually already has an SP page. I can't remember who made it, but it is an excellent page and you should check it out. And your county isolation lists is a great idea; I hadn't even thought of that before. Thanks!
To find the most isolated point in a county is not a simple task unless you use the John Kirk method of measuring the distance to the nearest summit that exceeds his minimum prominence criteria (300 ft).
I see. I may not end up making any county isolation peaks pages, simply because of how complicated and difficult it is to research that. I can make it a work in progress, perhaps. If I do, I'll have it up as soon as I can.
Well, WA's already been done, and I've got pages for CO, UT, OR, and ID. I might do CA, MT, NV, and NM at some point, and maybe a page for the Northeast and Southeast, but I haven't so far because of the immense size of those lists.

Re: Isolation ListsOh right. Craig's page.

CA?Will you be making a list page for CA as well? Any other states on the radar?
