[edit] Largest area in continental US over 10,000 feet? Not!

From an email on the county highpointing mailing list:

This statement is a huge stretch, not even close to accurate. I have checked maps and come up with about 135 square miles in the area dominated by Castle Mountain. The spine of the Rockies in Colorado has an area about 8,600 square miles in one glob over 10,000 feet. Other large high areas that easily beat the Beartooth area are the High Sierra and the Uinta Mountains, each with over 1,000 square miles.

If no one provides a source for this assertion in a few days, it's out. Daniel Case (talk) 21:27, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
