The overall list of 186 Gribbons represents the highest points in 254 named areas (four provinces, thirty-two counties, forty-two local council areas, 123 mountain / hill ranges, thirty major islands, and twenty-three major river catchments) and a further eighty-nine unnamed areas (forty-eight 20km isolations and forty-one 500m prominences). While the Gribbon list is primarily a resource for anyone interested in Irish geography, it is also a useful companion for hill-walkers and mountaineers.
