message: Seeking some advice here before I go ahead and edit ~50 articles; I am a new editor to mountain topics. I am currently improving the various articles related to the Adirondack High Peaks and don't have a satisfactory answer for handling the elevations and other geographic information on the mountains. Only one of the peaks, Marcy, has an NGS data sheet available online. I wish to avoid using peakbagger.com, due to its questionable status as a reliable source. The WikiProject guideline recommends using NAD88 elevations, but I have not found such a list in other sources. The Adirondack 46ers website lists the peaks, but provides no source. GNIS provides significantly different elevations for many of the mountains from both peakbagger.com and other lists, and I do not trust it. The most reliable source I can find is a list compiled by the Adirondack Mountain Club in the 1980s for the High peaks Trails guide book, which is regularly revised and reprinted for hikers. I own the 2023 edition; the 2004 edition can be viewed here on page 268. This list was based on photogrammetry surveys in the 1950s, which are NAD29 elevations, but the list has been reprinted in other reliable sources, such as Laura and Guy Waterman's book Forest and Crag (page 674). The club does not believe that more recent surveys of the peaks have been accurate, and I am inclined to use their list, unless there is a reason to avoid it for another.

message: Yablonoi Mountains and Kontalaksky Golets have contradictory information: the infobox on the former says that the range's high point is the latter, with an elevation of 2519 meters; however, the infobox on the latter says that its elevation is 1706 meters.  Following the provided coordinate links and choosing the Google Maps Terrain option suggests that the 1706 claim is correct; however, I have known Google Maps' Terrain data to be wrong before.  Someone who knows more than me should figure out the truth and edit accordingly. - LucasBrown 04:34, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
