The 24 summits of the Puna de Atacama
The Puna de Atacama runs through Chile, and this is all of it: 24 catalogued summits, from Cerro Ojos del Salado at 6 893 m down to Volcán Socompa at 6 050 m — 843 m between the first and the last, spread over roughly 472 km around 26.5° S, 68.5° 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.
