I've seen power lines marked on sectionals. How high are the highest

Power lines are marked for use as visual landmarks, NOT as obstructions.
Agreed.. the right of ways are very distinctive when they head off

I live on the gulf coast, and pretty much the vast majority are 200 feet

them up to 500 feet agl though, to allow ships to pass under.
