Peaks

A peak is a named summit or locally highest point on a mountain, ridge, hill, massif, or other elevated landform. Its identity may be defined by elevation, prominence, topographic form, established naming, or its position within a larger mountain system. A peak is the summit feature itself, not automatically the entire mountain or range that contains it.

Streams

A stream is a natural flowing watercourse contained within a channel, generally smaller than a river but defined primarily by local naming and hydrological context. Streams may be perennial, seasonal, intermittent, spring-fed, glacial, or ephemeral and often form tributaries within larger drainage networks. No universal width or discharge threshold cleanly separates a stream from a river.
