14er List Updated to match LOJ

Post by BillMiddlebrook »

This morning I updated the 14ers.com 14er elevation numbers as well as promoted North Maroon Peak to "ranked" and demoted Challenger Point to "unranked" to match the work done by John Kirk on https://www.listsofjohn.com. I consider John to be the authoritative source for these elevation numbers and his latest work using Colorado LiDAR data has provided us with the most accurate peak elevation data to date. A huge thanks to John and those who helped him finalize these new numbers!!

I'll get the 13er list updated in the next month or so.

Thanks Bill.
In the LiDAR thread there was discussion about a new sea level model this summer possibly lowering everything a few feet. That could impact promoted 12ers as well as a handful of other 13ers near the threshold.
I don't know how often those models are updated, or if LoJ reflects such updates, and I think the only movement we've seen here the past few years has been with Sunlight Spire, though maybe that wasn't geoid-related.
Anyway, are we holding our breath on that?

I *FINALLY* will get the credit I deserve for summiting Peak 8.

Me, too! I must have at least 125 Peak 8 summits. :)

Bill-

Small typo in the new info - when listing the elevations of the unranked peaks it says "has and elevation of..."
