The 21 summits of the Bismarck Range
The Bismarck Range runs through Papua New Guinea, and this is all of it: 21 catalogued summits, from Mount Giluwe at 4 368 m down to Mount Aikosa at 2 788 m — 1 580 m between the first and the last, spread over roughly 165 km around 5.5° S, 143.5° 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.
