The 12 summits of the Aïr Mountains
The Aïr Mountains runs through Niger, and this is all of it: 12 catalogued summits, from Adrar Tchirèlissene at 1 892 m down to Saghene at 1 172 m — 720 m between the first and the last, spread over roughly 54 km around 19.1° N, 8.6° 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.
