The 14 summits of the Salang mountains
The Salang mountains runs through Afghanistan, and this is all of it: 14 catalogued summits, from Shāhāk at 5 126 m down to Kōh-e Tayz Pāyak at 4 819 m — 307 m between the first and the last, spread over roughly 136 km around 35.4° N, 69.2° E.
The list is not hand-typed. wayly resolves it from the range itself against its summit catalogue — foothills under 60% of the highest left out, one summit mapped twice kept once — so it follows the mountains rather than someone's memory. And it fills itself in: a summit counts when a walk you recorded takes you over the top of it, not when you remember to tick a box.
