I am assuming you meant that looking east or west AT THAT LATITUDE there are no higher peaks until the ones mentioned. There are certainly points in the Alps and Rockies that are higher, perhaps even in the Appalachians and Massif Central too.

I've removed it. It can't be the former, because McKinley is considerably further north than Pen y Fan (61 degrees versus 51), and it can't be the latter - as you say, the Appalachians are higher than Pen y Fan. Varitek 15:20, 3 September 2005 (UTC)

Added the point re the Tommy Jones memorial. The point that the memorial is on the route from the Storey Arms is from memory so might not be 100% correct. Alunwyn 12:35, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

There's an obelisk marked on the OS maps on the ridge NW of Corn Du, which looks like a reasonable route from the Storey Arms to me. Is there any chance of a reference for the Tommy Jones story, by the way? --Stemonitis 13:28, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
