The Peakware site shows elevation at 6,856 metres as does one of my maps and Google search shows many sites as well using 6,856. Another map of mine shows the elevation at 6,812 metres as well as [1]. I also found a document from the Nepal government [2] that consistently used 6,812 m throughout. I therefore chose 6,812 metres as the official height of Ama Dablam. RedWolf 05:17, May 9, 2004 (UTC)
It is still not clear to me how this recent addition is a particularly notable ascent. Was it a new route? Was it noted as particularly important in a reliable source? -- Spireguy ( talk) 02:28, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
i summitted the mountain this year and got 6830 to 35 meters on the Suunto altimeter. It depends on the face, snowfall and place of summit that you get differing altitudes, i would go with both readings 6812 and 6856. 30 meters isnt even 1% variance in the height of the mountain. — Preceding

Should Asma Al Thani's 2021 ascent really qualify as a "notable ascent"? There is no indication of which route was used, and the sole point of "notability" appears to be the fact that she is the first Qatari woman to have summited (which then raises the questions of "why not indicate the first woman to summit? The first Nepali woman? The first Indian woman? Or for that matter, the first Qatari of any gender? etc). It seems like the kind of information that would be a valuable contribution to Asma Al Thani's page, rather than this one (and indeed, her Ama Dablam summit is mentioned twice in the same paragraph) Allthegoodghosts ( talk) 18:10, 19 March 2022 (UTC)
