Murdos

A Murdo is a Scottish peak over 914.4 metres high (3000 feet) with a drop of at least 30 (98 feet) all round. The Murdos comprise all 277 Munros, 160 of the most significant Munro Tops and seven additional summits. This database also identifies the 205 Murdos with a drop of over 150 metres (i.e. Marilyns) and treats these as major summits. They are referred to as Murdo summits in the database.
