AUSTRALIA
(excluding Tasmania)

600 Meter - 2,000 Feet
the "Double Eagles"

80 Summits with Prominence of 600 meters or more

list compiled 2005 by Jonathan de Ferranti

This list provides all known summits on the mainland of Australia, and in the external territories.  A separate page has been made for the 37 summits on Tasmania.  The primary list below gives 77 summits on the mainland.  There follows a list of three known 600m summits on Heard Island and Lord Howe Island.  This gives Australia a preliminary total of 117 600m summits.  Australia has just three "ultras", which are the highpoints of the mainland, Tasmania, and Heard Island.

Elevations have been cross-checked against the AusLig 1:250,000 maps.  Saddle elevations and thus prominence values have been generated from SRTM 3" DEM data.  Prominence values are thus believed to be accurate to within ±15 meters.  Anyone with the time and inclination to check the saddles against 1:50,000 or larger topographic mapping is invited to contact the authors; we will be glad to provide a list of all saddle locations.

FOOTNOTES

XT3:  ANZAC Peak.  This is the highpoint of the Laurens Peninsula on Heard Island.  The location and elevation are taken from the Australian Antarctic Gazateer.  Mt. Dixon (706m), Mt. Olsen, and Hayter Peak are other summit names on the same peninsula.
