Kerbin 6000 Meter Peaks

[quietghost]

After some searching, I realized there was no repository of Kerbin's highest peaks. Lots of people have summited the highest peak at 6764m, but I wanted to find them all.

Here is my list:

A listing of the ten 6000m peaks of Kerbin

Rank	Height (m)	Latitude (DMS)	Longitude (DMS)
1	6767	61 35 54	46 20 17
2	6566	-74 23 43	-17 31 47
3	6433	-14 26 44	71 57 24
4	6432	-6 35 54	113 37 21
5	6143	-13 49 48	71 17 37
6	6142	-30 09 19	-13 27 20
7	6119	46 04 45	139 32 01
8	6067	-68 33 12	-27 13 12
9	6041	-17 12 15	73 38 30
10	6009	42 33 10	135 50 45

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Please note that negative latitudes are in the southern hemisphere, negative longitudes are in the western hemisphere. I acquired the locations by pinpointing high points on a hyper-res map of kerbin, then flew to the location, landed near the summit, and placed a flag on the summit. For some reason the height of the peak varies slightly from load to load, so each value is +/- 3 meters, which means that 3 & 4 are a tie, as are 5 & 6.

Screenshots

If I have missed any, please put them in the comments below, complete with location information. Insofar as I am aware, this is all the 6000m peaks of Kerbin

Nice!  Maybe @Syntax could incorporate this into a Interplanetary Mountaineer contract?

Interesting idea! Although it would set a precedent for the rest of the celestial bodies that I'm not really prepared to follow-through with... unless I had a data-set like quietghost's I could use for all of them. I greatly admire the work that went into compiling that! Unfortunately, I'm not up to the task

well, it's your mod... you can always say no.  Or say "sure, if you give me a data-set like quietghost's"
