- mkl 14y agoSo it is. Doh, I just spent 15 minutes tracking it down (and I didn't quite get it right - there's another cutting through the same ridge a bit south west which I guess is newer). Here [1] is a 3D diagram in a video (not English) about it, with the nearest town labelled Vazirganj. It's Wazirganj on Google maps, south of the cutting, so Gahlour must be the small village to the north west. [1] http://youtu.be/3E84EIKlY4g?t=3m8s http://youtu.be/3E84EIKlY4g?t=3m8s
- jlmendezbonini 14y agoI had some time to kill so I downloaded Google Earth but still wasn't able to find the village "Gahlour". However, I was able to verify that the distance from the mentioned coordinate and "Wazirganj" is indeed ~8Km as stated by Wikipedia. Google Earth screenshot for those obsessed by this story too: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/2336184/24.877093%2C85.242956.jpg https://dl.dropbox.com/u/2336184/24.877093%2C85.242956.jpg
- sesqu 14y agoAnother link in the article pointed to Topomapper which had the best map, in my opinion - an old Yahoo! map. (If you also want to find Atri, it's on the OSM and Bing maps). http://www.topomapper.com/index.html?lat=24.87709&lon=85.24296&zoom=13&layers=00000000B00F http://www.topomapper.com/index.html?lat=24.87709&lon=85...
- jacobn 14y agoTerrain mode shows it more clearly: https://maps.google.com/maps?q=24.877093,85.242956&ll=24.877171,85.24395&spn=0.019389,0.038581&t=p&z=15 https://maps.google.com/maps?q=24.877093,85.242956&ll=24... (you'll want to view all of the maps linked to in this sub-thread)
- martin-adams 14y agoOkay, I give up. I can't figure out where the original 75km came from looking at the google map.
- dchest 14y agoHere you can see a long road around the mountain http://www.topomapper.com/index.html?lat=24.87709&lon=85.24296&zoom=13&layers=00000000B00F http://www.topomapper.com/index.html?lat=24.87709&lon=85... (thanks, sesqu)
