It's the 41st highest peak in the continental us (30th highest in Colorado*). *To be ranked, a peak must rise at least 300 feet above the saddle that connects it to the nearest 14er peak (if another exists nearby). This guideline has been in use in Colorado for some time. Two peaks higher than Pikes Peak are not ranked because they do not fit this criteria.http://erg.usgs.gov/isb/pubs/booklets/elvadist/elvadist.html#14,000 http://www.14ers.com/photos/photos_14ers1.html
