“Upmost” can mean “uppermost,” referring to something on top. But usually this word is a mistake for “utmost,” meaning “most extreme.” It is also highest in place, order, rank, power etc... e.g. the uppermost peaks of the mountain.
"Utmost" the greatest degree, quantity, or the like; greatest: of the utmost importance
- being the farthest point or extrimity; farthest: e.g. the utmost reef of the island
