The following sortable table lists the 100 most topographically isolated major mountain peaks of Canada.Topographic elevation is the vertical distance above the reference geoid, a precise mathematical model of the Earth's sea level as an equipotential gravitational surface. Topographic prominence is the elevation difference between the summit and the highest or key col to a higher summit. Topographic isolation is the minimum great circle distance to a point of higher elevation.This article defines a major mountain peak as a summit with at least 500 metres (1,640 ft) of topographic prominence. An ultra prominent peak is a summit with at least 1,500 metres (4,921 ft) of topographic prominence.Of these 100 most isolated major summits, 59 are located in British Columbia, 15 in Nunavut, 10 in Yukon, 7 in Newfoundland and Labrador, 5 in Alberta, 4 in Quebec, 2 in the Northwest Territories, and 1 each in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick..
