Chachacomani
Top 9 in Top 10 Highest Mountains In Bolivia
Chachacomani (perhaps derived from Quechua chachakuma, a medicinal plant) is a peak in Bolivia's Cordillera Real, east of Lake Titicaca. It is located southeast of Chearoco in the La Paz Department, Larecaja Province, Guanay Municipality. Wari Umaa in the southwest and Qillwani in the northwest are two of the closest mountains. F. Fritz, F. Buchholtz (Germany), G. Moller, D. Doore, I. Paz, and G. Sanjinez (Bolivia) were the first to climb Chachacomani on January 8, 1947.
The mountain, which stands at 6,074 meters (19,928 feet) above sea level, is said to be one of the Cordillera Real's least hiked peaks. Other data from available digital elevation models include 6038 meters from SRTM, 6043 meters from ASTER, and 6084 meters from TanDEM-X. The closest major col is 5479 meters high, resulting in a 595-meter topographic prominence. According to the Dominance System, Chachacomani is a Mountain with a 9.8 percent dominance. Chearoko is its parent summit, with a topographic isolation of 4.3 kilometers. The exact height has never been determined, and it could vary by up to 20 meters (66 feet), but the top is estimated to be above 6,000 meters (19,685 feet). The deep and sheltered valleys surrounding the mountain, in particular, provide numerous varied microclimates, which result in lakes and other formations that sustain a diverse range of bird species.
