    How can anyone have a top 50 most impressive mountains in the world and not have
    Nanga Parbat, Rakaposhi, Dhaulagari and Mount Logan?

    OH and the picture you have for Annapurna isn’t Annapurna . That looks like it might be the
    mountain that is often referred to as Annapurna South

    Would like to mention that Alyeska is not the mountain on the other side of the fjord in the picture above. The only part of Alyeska shown in this article is the nearest side, and the picture is taken from the ski resort.

    Although perhaps not the most awe inspiring on this list, the humble Scafell Pike is my favourite as it’s accessible for me in England, and is in the most beautiful part of the UK (Lake District) 🙂 Well done on including it!
