Best Answer

The highest mountain in Missouri is Taum Sauk Mountain. Its summit is 1772 feet above Mean Sea Level. However, the "tallest" mountain in Missouri is Black Mountain.

From the base of Taum Sauk Mountain to its summit, there is a rise of about 700 feet in elevation. However, Taum Sauk rises from an already elevated plain.

The elevation at the base of Black Mountain, along the St. Francis River, is about 540 feet above Mean Sea Level, and the summit is 1,502 feet. So, even though the peak of Black Mountain is not as high above sea level as Taum Sauk, Black Mountain rises almost 1,000 feet from its base.

Taum Sauk is the highest mountain in Missouri. Black Mountain is the tallest.
