The virtual tour recording over and around the tallest mountains is well done; but five of the ten summits are wrongly represented!
- The 2nd highest summit K2 you've supposedly stated is actually Annapurna I. (*)
- " 4th " " Lhotse " " " is " Dhaulagiri I.
- " 6th " " Cho Oyu " " " is " K2. (**)
- " 7th " " Dhaulagiri I " " " is " Lhotse.
- " 10th " " Annapurna I " " " is " Cho Oyu.
FYI in addition:
* The former name Mt. Godwin Austen for mount K2 is considered today incorrect and no longer common as it was once more than a century ago. Rather the tributary glacier coming from this mountain's surrounding and flowing into the larger Baltoro Glacier is called so. However some maps and sources give still this wrong name.
** The proper elevation of Cho Oyu given as 8,188 m should be actually 8,201 m unlike some sources.
