List of California county high points

This is a list of 58 counties of the U.S. State of California by their points of highest elevation.

6 of the 50 highest county high points in the United States are in California.

[1] Because of the wide variety of mountain ranges in California, the state has become a common destination for highpointers and peakbaggers.

[2] Some of these high points, such as Laveaga Peak and South Butte among others, are located on private or protected land and are typically not allowed to be summited.

While peakbagger.com and other similar highpointing websites explicitly forbid trespassing on private and protected land, trip reports submitted to these sites would suggest that many climbers do this anyway.
