The Ruwenzori runs through the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and this is all of it: 12 catalogued summits, from Mont Stanley at 5 109 m down to Bottego at 4 510 m — 599 m between the first and the last, spread over roughly 14 km around 0.4° N, 29.9° 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.
