If good fences make good neighbors, do good mountains make even better neighbors? Mountain ridges are often used to delineate borders between countries. Somtimes borders are geometric (e.g. the 49th parallel between the western U.S. and Canada) and run right up and over peaks and down the other side. Use this album to post your experiences visiting peaks that straddle more than one country. Please post pictures that actually show spots where countries come together.

Re: Good idea!

Thanks. Your photo of the Glacier-Waterton area inspired me to sift through some old photos from when I used to live out there...back in the good ol' days.

Been on a lot of these kinds of summits

I wish I had pics of the summit of the Naafkopf when I was there: 3 countries meet at the summit: Switzerland, Liechtenstein, and Austria. It was pretty cool.
