I think Paldor doesn´t belong to the Langtang Himal but rather to the Ganesh Himal. Naya Kanga is part of the Jugal Himal though I know that it´s often presented as belonging to the Langtang in order not to confuse people. I also think that Tsergo Ri is not one of the official "Trekking Peaks" and I guess it should be detached from this list. Anyway nice effort so far...

Thanks for that. The Jugal/Langtang thing has always confused me a bit as it appears to be virtually the same subrange. I'll make those changes you mention.

Great list, thank you for creating this page! Some comments:

"one of the 18 mountains designated as trekking peaks" The number should be 33 (18+15), no? (But you have 35 peaks listed on the page. Also the NMA mentions Lobuche West 6145m as a trekking peak as well. I could never figure out the 'correct' number of peaks designated as trekking peaks myself, different sources list different peaks and numbers.)

"Mardi Harmal" -> "Mardi Himal"

Hiuchuli -> Hiunchuli (I think this is the more common spelling)

Cherigo -> Chekijo (I think this is the more common spelling)

"Chuli East" -> "Chulu East"

Gokyo Peak should not be a child of this page, although it is a 'trekking' peak in the sense of the word, but does not require an NMA permit.
