This is the true Mera Peak as described in the official trekking peak list. This can be checked from any map showing the latitude and longitude. The Mera marked on the new Nepal Government topographical map, which must be regarded as the official view. The newly calculated height is 6648m.
South ridge is unclimbable, East and north faces almost so.
North-east ridge is a difficult mixed 1600 meter climb. So far there have been only two known attempts, both in 2000. Copyright 1999 Peakware. All rights reserved.
