The 10 summits of the Western Foothills
The Western Foothills runs through Taiwan, and this is all of it: 10 catalogued summits, from Xiaoxue Shan at 2 976 m down to Dongxishui Shan at 2 229 m — 747 m between the first and the last, spread over roughly 40 km around 24.4° N, 121.1° 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.
