Talk:Om Parvat

Name/identity of peak

It's unclear to me if Om Parvat is really the same as Adi Kailash. The height is also quite uncertain, as is now stated in the article. One of the American Alpine Journal articles notes that the names and identities of the peaks in this area are quite unclear, and that the map they had to use was inaccurate. The Himalayan Index is also confusing, with multiple suspiciously similar hits for "Kailas"/"Kailash". So a definitive reference, if one exists, would be most helpful. -- Spireguy 03:12, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi Spireguy, I'm pretty sure Om Parvat and Adi Kailash are different mountains. Adi Kaliash is a very distinctice peak, like a snow pyramid, with the band of rock running across it that you describe, when seen from Jolinkong temple. If you like, I can send you a photograph of it showing this.

The height is also lower, around 5900 metres. All the US DOD mountain heights for the area seem to be about 200 metres out. The Indian military maps are restricted. Team member Paul Zuchosky was very disappointed to find this out - his target was for a virgin 6000 metre peak!

Regards

The height is certainly below 20,000 ft since the higher peak to the south is just over 20,000.

Adi Kailash and Om Parvat are two different peaks. Om Parvat - as the name suggest, resembles hindu character OM. Whereas Adi Kailash is considered replica of Mt. Kailash. Adi Kailash is more towards Tibet, whereas Omparvat marks the tri junction point - bordering India, Nepal and Tibet. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kaushalchandak (talk • contribs) 09:40, 21 October 2011 (UTC)

Question about location

I always read that om parvat is in uttaranchal (or uttarakhand), but here it says its in nepal. Can you check this? http://www.uttarakhandtourism.net/trek_om_parwat.htm

Answer : Explore Trip To Temples Om Parvat more. Om parvat touches Nepal, Tibet & India at its 3 sides but Sign of Om is visible from India side only.
