aha, you've reminded me about the old ski holiday in Andorra, got near the top of Pic Negre, it has a summit of 2569m so i reckon i was at 2200m, however i did say summit & climb in my first post so it doesn't count  >:(

p.s. i've put up a table on the first post

Ben Nevis for me
Donard as well (can't remember how many times!)

I've been on the Bolivian Altiplano (above La Paz and at lake Titicaca) at about 14,000 ft.  Does that count?  :-\

Barre des Écrins - 4,102 m in the Dauphine Alps, France...

I was out assessing a Gold DofE Group a few years back who were walking the GR54 and I couldn't resist it...  ;D

I'm getting higher, 2132m (another 2m and i would have reached 7000feet) now achieved on Cima Delle Pozette on Monte Baldo (Italian Southern Alps), would have got higher but the nearby thunderstorms made me err on the side of caution as i was alone and without my mourne wall for protection  >:(

p.s i did cheat a little and got the cable car to 1760m  ;D
