Description
Mt. Meeker on the left is not quite as tall as Longs Peak. Therefore, Mt. Meeker doesn't make the cut to be a "Fourteener".
Colorado has 53 Fourteeners, including Longs Peak. In mountaineering terminology, a Fourteener is a mountain that meets or exceeds an elevation of 14,000 feet above mean sea level. Mt. Meeker, to the left in the image, at 13,916 feet is not a Fourteener. Colorado has the majority of Fourteeners in the contiguous United States, followed by California, which has the second largest group of such peaks in the lower 48 states. Climbing all 53 of Colorado's Fourteeners is a popular pastime among peak baggers; another popular target is climbing all of the fourteeners in the contiguous United States. Various ski mountaineers have completed ski descents of all the Colorado fourteeners, and the first attempts are being made to complete ski descents of all U.S. Fourteeners.
