Voted 10/10 | Excellent page. You are the authority for information on mountains in Iran. The pages are especially valuable, because its a land that is un-known to most people in the West, and infomation is hard to get anywhere else. Keep up the good work. | |

Voted 10/10 | Very cool to see peaks in Iran. I just read the Climbing Magazine article about climbing in Iran. It looks like there is a very active climbing community there. | |

Hasn't voted | Thank you very much for your vote and interest. I wonder what Climbing Magazine wrote. I will try to check it out. I visited Iran last summer after 21 year of living in the US. From what I saw there and what I see on the internet, there sure seems to be a very active climbing community. I guess it is only natural, most of the country is covered by mountains. | |

Voted 10/10 | Whats your idea? the elevation shown by your GPS/altimeter are more reliable or the maps? I don't know about how maps or a GPS does it but I think an barometer/altimeter shows the worst ? | |

Hasn't voted | Thank you for your vote. I feel very comfortable with the 1:50 000 maps. They seem very accurate and I believe what they say. The numbers on these maps supposedly come from surveying or other aerial/satellite imagery. My GPS, in general seems fairly accurate and seems to show the elevations +/- 20 to 30 m or so even for the many peaks that I have climbed in the US (Mian-Se-Chal was the only peak that my GPS' reading was much higher than the value on the map). I have seen many other books/maps in Iran that seem to give approximate elevations or numbers that are outright wrong. For example Dobrar does not seem to appear on any maps. Most maps that I have seen give the elevation of Ghareh Dagh Peak as if it was the highest point. There is also a lot of confusion about the elevations of Shah Alborz or Siyalan Peaks. I hope to buy the 1:50 000 maps for these areas when I come to Iran. | |
