Named arguments: Name, Elevation, Location, Range
or
{{Mtnbox start norange}}

Named arguments: Name, Elevation, Location
  • The next template (describing the topographic prominence of the peak) is optional:
{{Mtnbox prom}}
1 positional parameter
  • The next template in the infobox must define the latitude and longitude. Either of these templates is acceptable:
{{Mtnbox coor dms}}
9 positional parameters - same as {{coor dms}}
