This article comprises three sortable tables of the significant mountain peaks of Missouri. This article defines a significant mountain peak as a summit with at least of topographic prominence, and a major summit as a summit with at least of topographic prominence. All summits in this article have at least 100 meters of topographic prominence. An ultra-prominent summit is a summit with at least 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. The [|first table] below ranks the 20 highest summits of Missouri by elevation.
- The topographic prominence of a summit is a measure of how high the summit rises above its surroundings. The [|second table] below ranks the 20 most prominent summits of Missouri.
- The topographic isolation of a summit measures how far the summit lies from its nearest point of equal elevation. The [|third table] below ranks the 50 most isolated major summits of Missouri.
