Mauna Kea on the Island of Hawaiʻi is the highest peak in the U.S. State of Hawaiʻi and the entire Pacific Ocean.
The Hawaiian Islands and the U.S. State of Hawaiʻi 13 major mountain peaks[a] with at least 500 meters (1640 feet) of topographic prominence.
The summit of a mountain or hill may be measured in three principal ways:
The topographic elevation of a summit measures the height of the summit above a geodetic sea level.[1] The first table below ranks the 13 major summits of Hawaiʻi by topographic elevation.
The topographic prominence of a summit is a measure of how high the summit rises above its surroundings.[2][1] The second table below ranks the 13 major summits of Hawaiʻi by topographic prominence.
The topographic isolation (or radius of dominance) of a summit measures how far the summit lies from its nearest point of equal elevation.[3] The third table below ranks the 13 major summits of Hawaiʻi by topographic isolation.

^ abIf the elevation or prominence of a summit is calculated as a range of values, the arithmetic mean is shown.
^The topographic prominence of a summit is the topographic elevation difference between the summit and its highest or key col to a higher summit. The summit may be near its key col or quite far away. The key col for Denali in Alaska is the Isthmus of Rivas in Nicaragua, 7642 kilometers (4749 miles) away.
^The topographic isolation of a summit is the great-circle distance to its nearest point of equal elevation.
