One of the greatest adventures in U.S. travel is collecting the 50 state highpoints!

The list below was updated 2022-2025 using LiDAR data and, in a few instances, dGPS data. LiDAR presented evidence that other areas near Mt. Davis could be higher than the traditional summit boulder, but a 2024 dGPS analysis found those points to be 3' lower. A similar analysis was performed on Mt. Rainier, since the Columbia Crest has melted 22' lower in the past few decades. The new Rainier highpoint is the southwest rim. In Michigan, a dGPS survey found that Mount Curwood is .4 feet higher than Mount Arvon, the previously-believed highpoint.

Difficulty score is determined by Martin Classification of Difficulty for U.S. State Highpoints and is based on the easiest standard route.
