Talk:List of mountains in Pakistan

The old "List of mountains in Pakistan" now redirects to this one

The names of the articles should be "initcap", it should be "List of Mountains in Pakistan" rather than "List of mountains in Pakistan". So I've created this page List of Mountains in Pakistan moving all the text from the old one. The old page List of mountains in Pakistan now redirects to this new one (List of Mountains in Pakistan).

That was the clearest possible breach of policy and I am requesting a move back. ReeseM 03:26, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Three Laila Peaks in Pakistan, More Info Required

When I first searched for Laila Peak on the internet, there were different heights mentioned for the peak; 6200m, 6614m and 6986m. Later I found out that there are three Laila Peaks in Pakistan [1].

I've created pages for these peaks here:

If you find more info about these peaks, please add it to the above pages.

Also, since these pages mention only one Laila Peak, I'm adding the other two to this list.

Any idea of Location of Laila Peaks? Coordinates required as well

Add to the confusion, the above mentioned summitpost article tells the coordinates of the Laila Peak (Hushe Valley) are 35.35000°N / 76.24000°E, whereas this Google Earth's BBS post mentions Laila Peak's coordinates as 35°35′28.4″N, 76°24′19.5″E. Upon further investigating, it appears that the latter is true because of its location (K2 and Broad Peak etc are visible from the Laila Peak, mentioned by Frederik, in ski expedition report), and I think the author of SummitPost article mistakenly put dots instead of ° signs. So I've corrected the info on the Laila Peak article. If somone has more info, please post it.

"Bei Tip"??

"Bei Tip" is listed on this List of Mountains in Pakistan as "Bei Tip - (7912 m) - Karakoram, Masherbrum Mts.". Apparently no information is available online for any peak named "Bei Tip".

Is it considered a separate peak? If so, it should be listed in List of highest mountains, otherwise it should be removed from the List of Mountains in Pakistan list as well. Please comment.Waqas.usman 22:50, 16 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bei Tip can be found on the excellent 1:100,000 "K2" topo by Mi Desheng. But I bdo not think it should be listed here because it is not a separate mountain from Gasherbrun IV. Viewfinder 23:06, 16 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Elevation Inflation

Trivor Sar: see list of highest mountains. Hachindar Chhish is given as 6870m by most authorities including all topos that I have seen. The Trango Towers' high point is 6363m on Desheng map. Viewfinder 23:06, 16 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Name change

This should be moved back to List of mountains in Pakistan. The move to this name was a breach of a straightforward and compulsory policy. ReeseM 03:27, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Already redirected by User:Tobias Conradi (thanks!) but an admin will need to reconnect this talk page history. David Kernow 11:28, 17 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I apologize, it was my mistake based on my own assumption, I should have checked.Waqas.usman 02:39, 18 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Can you identify these?

Please take a look at these unidentified peaks at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Unidentified_Karakoram_peaks. If you recognize any of these, please update their description and category and notify me. Thanks! Waqas.usman 23:55, 12 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
