Hasn't voted | Michael I NEVER put coords into this TOPO thing the US people seem to love. I recently checked out a couple of readings on two mountain group pages I'd put up in the UK. I entered what I know to be the EXACT lat & long readings and found the map was pointing at an area some 20miles away from the actual peak. As far as the Nepalese peaks go, I think one of the SP elves did it as I refused to guess. Also, I cant believe that you need coords to find a significant Himal peak like Lobuche etc anyway. They're obsessed with the thing! Brian | |

Hasn't voted | According to http://www.tourism.gov.np/peaksopedfortrekking.htm (if it is correct (and due to the state of their website it might not be)), the geo coordinates of the peak might be: 28.5583, 83.8944 thx Michael | |
