Mount Isolation is a mountain located in Coos County, New Hampshire. The mountain is part of the Presidential Range of the White Mountains. Mount Isolation is the highest peak on the Montalban Ridge which extends south from Boott Spur.
Isolation is in the Presidential Range–Dry River Wilderness, and as its name implies, is one of the most remote White Mountain peaks. Isolation just qualifies as one of the Appalachian Mountain Club's "Four-thousand footers", having the requisite 4,000 feet (1,219 m) of elevation and 200 feet (61 m) of prominence.
