Description

Wikipedia

Koh-e Keshni Khan is a 6755-meter-high mountain in the eastern Hindukush range, Wakhan Corridor, Afghanistan. It is the 30th highest mountain in the country. It has a prominence of 292 metres (958 ft), which is extremely low given the altitude, but this is likely due to the fact that ridges surround the mountain. The mountain, along with all of the eastern Hindukush, is heavily glaciated starting from a very low altitude. The temperature tree line is at 10,800 feet (3,300 m). The nearest higher-elevation peak to the mountain is Kuh-e Keshni Khan, which is 2.1 kilometres (1.3 mi) away.
