The following is a list of the California mountains above 14,000 feet that also rise at least 300 feet above all saddles connecting them to higher peaks (i.e., 14,000-foot peaks with at least 300 feet of prominence). The Fourteeners (aka 14’ers, 14ers, 14Kers, etc.) are a subset of the 147 California Thirteeners. Please see the VRMC California Thirteeners page for more information on the methodology used to compile this and other VRMC peak lists.

Export this list as a KML file to load into the separate (free) Google Earth application.
