The Northeast 111 is a peak-bagging list of 4,000-foot (1,219.2 m) mountains in the northeastern states of the United States. It includes the sixty-seven 4000-footers of New England (48 in New Hampshire, 14 in Maine and 5 in Vermont), the 46 Adirondack High Peaks, and Slide and Hunter Mountain, both in the Catskills of New York. The list was first compiled in 1971.[2]
This list includes 115 peaks but is still referred to as the "Northeast 111" because that name predates the additions of Galehead Mountain and Bondcliff in New Hampshire, as well as Mount Redington and Spaulding Mountain in Maine, due to later surveys determining they do indeed rise to 4,000 feet (1,219.2 m) and satisfy topographic prominence requirements.[3] There are also four peaks in the Adirondacks that are under 4,000 feet, (Blake Peak, Cliff Mountain, Couchsachraga Peak, and Nye Mountain) making the true number of 4,000 foot peaks 111.
