Notes
[edit]- ^ Heights are from the Bundesamt für Eich- und Vermessungswesen Austrian maps online or the relevant Alpine Club Guide or Alpine Club map. Assume an error rate of up to 10 m, as height estimates can vary dramatically between sources. For example, the Großvenediger summit is 3657 m on the Austrian maps online, 3666 or 3667 m in much literature (e.g. in End & Peterka, 2006), but 3674 m in most literature and on most websites. Some of the discrepancies stem from snowmelt. For instance, until the 20th century the snowy north peak of the Wildspitze was the higher summit (then measured at 3772 m), but it now is at least 5 meters lower than the rocky south summit, which is 3768 or 3770 m. Indeed, the 3674 m estimate for the snow cap of Großvenediger dates from the mid 19th-century or earlier [1].
- ^ Ca = Carinthia, ET = East Tyrol, NT = North Tyrol, Sb = Salzburg, Vb = Vorarlberg. For mountains on international borders Gb = Graubünden (Switzerland) and ST = South Tyrol (Italy).
- ^ Prominence estimates have an even higher error range than summit heights, as the pass height estimates vary too while not all low points between peaks have been measured.
- ^ Most ascents in 1852-1854 were made by locals, soldiers, or surveyors in the context of a cartographic survey. Main sources are Die Erschliessung der Ostalpen: 1-3, Eduard Richter ed., Verlag des Deutschen und Oesterreichischen Alpenverein, Berlin, 1893-94 and the Alpenverein guides to the various ranges
- ^ A poorly recorded ascent noted by Archduke John of Austria in 1846. The first well-documented ascent was in 1861.
- ^ a b c d e f g h i j k Approximation
- ^ a b Klier (page 246) gives a height of 3456 m rather than the more common 3452 m to the south peak of the Vordere Ölgrubenspitze, making it just higher than the neighboring 3453/3454 m Bliggspitze. In that case the prominence values of the peaks are basically reversed, and the Ölgrubenspitze is 3.4 km away from the next highest point
- ^ a b The high point of Hochgall is in South Tyrol, Italy, the border veering off at 3,354 m on the NE ridge
- ^ a b c d e f g h i First recorded surveyor or touristic ascent, but probably climbed earlier by locals
- ^ a b The Tuxer ridge of the Zillertaler Alps is often regarded as part of the Tux Alps, of which the Olperer would be the highest summit.
