    The list only covers the major, named peaks in Death Valley National Park, and does not include unnamed, but ranked summits. Also, only a few of the prominent, named benchmarks have been included. There are other named benchmarks that are not on the list.

  3. The abbreviations used in the Range (Rg) column are:

    BF: Bullfrog Hills
    BK:Black Mountains
    CM:Cottonwood Mountains
    FM:Funeral Mountains
    GR:Greenwater Range
    GV:Grapevine Mountains
    LC:Last Chance Range
    OM:Owlshead Mountains
    PA:Panamint Range
    SA:Saline Range
    TS:Trans Sierra


  4. An entry in the DPS column indicates that the peak is on the
    Sierra Club’s Desert Peak Section list.
