The 11 summits of the Cordillera Principal
The Cordillera Principal runs through Chile, and this is all of it: 11 catalogued summits, from Nevado Olivares at 6 216 m down to Cerro Los Maranceles at 5 688 m — 528 m between the first and the last, spread over roughly 684 km around 31.5° S, 69.8° W.
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.
