Here's a list I don't think exists: Mountains whose summit is a giant boulder

[SpencerVT]

Here is a list I don't think exists yet: Mountains where the summit highest point is a stand alone boulder or glacial erratic.
I know of at least a few of them.
Yesterday, while working on the Vermont 500 Highest List I climbed this 1,880' peak in Granby Vermont. The summit was an absolutely enormous perfectly fractured boulder which was cool to encounter.
I can think of at least a few other mountains in the Northeast where the summit high point is a giant stand alone boulder, such as Bailey Hill 3,051' in the Adirondacks. It would be cool to assemble a list of peaks with this characteristic.

Wonalancet Hedgehog has a large boulder at the high point.

In Stoddard, NH, the summit of the unofficially-named Chapman's Hill is strewn with huge glacial boulders.

Vermont 500 highest list?

 

[ChrisB]

The Madison Boulder is a summit unto itself.

 

[Tom Rankin]

Peekamooose in the Cats, is quite large.

A few of the CHH.

Hunter's rock is not quite a boulder

Blackhead?

Flat Mountain (North), New Hampshire



Black Mountain, North Peak, Jackson, N.H.

Glen Boulder is quite impressive though not located on a summit per se. I used to have a good photo of it. Not sure where it went, but the boulder is still there.

From memory...Bailey Hill in NY?

 

[TEO]

I've never been there, nor did I sleep at a Holiday Inn Express last night, however, I have a sneaking suspicion that Bailey Hill (NY) has a summit boulder.

Owlshead from Cherry? I seem to remember having to climb up a big boulder to get to the top for views as my Lab waited 20 feet or so below.

The Horn, on Mount Cabot, would qualify.

Someone climbed on Sawtooth #9 boulder?

IIRC, Wallface has a summit boulder, too, yes?

Yup I was thinking about this one too.

Bolder on summit of Bailey Hill

Dennis Crispo next to the bolder. We were able to climb to the top using the nearby trees

 

[peakbagger]

What about Moriah?. Is it outcrop of a boulder?

 

[Jazzbo]

There is Bubble Rock on South Bubble in Acadia. Not on tippy top, but definitely worth a visit.

More zoom captain!!!!

Looks like a stiff wind would push it over the edge

North Kinsman?

I, and many others, have tried!

Is there a boulder near the top of Porter? I guess I have to go back. If not at the top, it's pretty close.
