Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
“With a peak elevation of 6,263 m (20,548 ft), Chimborazo is the highest mountain in Ecuador. It is the highest peak near the equator. Chimborazo is not the highest mountain by elevation above sea level, but its location along the equatorial bulge makes its summit the farthest point on the Earth's surface from the Earth's center.”
Why have I never heard of this Summit? What about Everest? Thank you
