Of these 100 summits, 53 are located in Colorado, 23 in Alaska, 14 in California, five in Wyoming, two in Hawaiʻi, and one each in Washington, Utah, and New Mexico.

The ten highest major summits of the United States are all located in Alaska.
Of the 50 most prominent summits of the United States, only Denali exceeds 5000 meters (16,404 feet) of topographic prominence, three peaks exceed 4000 meters (13,123 feet), ten peaks exceed 3000 meters (9843 feet), 45 peaks exceed 2000 meters (6562 feet), and all 50 peaks exceed 1932 meters (6339 feet) of topographic prominence.
