))))I live on Natlandsfjellet in the city of Bergen, Norway. This location is North 60:20.726, East 005:22.449, with an elevation of 260 meter.
From my house, I can hike (mainly) uphill to the summit of Haugavarden, the highest point
on the mountain that most people call Ulriken.
It has an elevation of 673 meter and
the respectable prominence of 590 meter (ie. almost a Major mountain).
The Prominence Parent Hierarchy from my house is defined by locating the sequence of peaks
being both higher and having more prominence
by following the path through the key (prominence defining) saddles along this sequence.
The Distance Prominence Ladder from my house is defined by locating the sequence of peaks
having increasingly larger prominence
by moving further and further away from my house.
The two sequences are listed below.
You can find your own distance prominence ladder with the help of the excellent web resource Peakbagger.com.
