The 8 summits of the Palmyra Mountains
The Palmyra Mountains runs through Syria, and this is all of it: 8 catalogued summits, from Jabal Hawīyat ar Ra’s at 1 378 m down to Jabal ath Thar‘ah at 1 045 m — 333 m between the first and the last, spread over roughly 23 km around 34.9° N, 38.5° 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.
