Tripoint

The article says, "It is 2,914 metres (9,560 ft) tall, with the highest part of the peak being in France." Is there a source for this statement? On the various maps I have consulted (Andorra–Cadí 1:50000, Randó Editions, 2001; Andorran Government 2008 edition 1:25000 tourist maps in French and 2009 edition in English), it looks like the summit of Pic de Medacorba is the tripoint, and the Andorra-France border extends from the summit along the ridge line towards Pic del Pla de l'Estany. 85.94.189.32 ( talk) 01:33, 25 February 2010 (UTC) reply

Hm. I think that was in the source I used when I wrote it, but I now forget what source that was, because I forgot to include it. I suggest removing the statement unless/until it can be referenced. Good Ol’factory (talk) 08:10, 25 February 2010 (UTC) reply
According to the map on p.20 of Atlas d'Andorra (1991), which is published by the Government of Andorra and which is probably the most reliable source available for this topic, it looks like the summit is the tripoint. I'm removing the contentious claim in the article for the moment, though please revert if there are any reliable sources to support it. 85.94.184.115 ( talk) 01:46, 14 October 2010 (UTC) reply
