Seven Third Summits : ウィキペディア英語版 | Seven Third Summits The Seven Third Summits are the third highest mountains of each of the seven continents. All of these mountain peaks are separate peaks rather than a sub-peak of the continents' high point. Christian Stangl from Austria claims to be the first person to reach the summit of all seven ''third summit'' mountains by climbing Puncak Mandala and Puncak Trikora. He did this as a part of his Triple Seven Summits project. However this claim is controversial since Stangl chose Sumantri () as his ''second summit'' on the Australian continent (according to peakbagger.com); and Puncak Mandala () as the ''third summit''; the former being higher in the past due to its glacier (now melted), and the latter considered the actual second summit. == ''Seven Third Summits'' definitions== The definition of ''continent'' is a matter of some dispute among mountaineers seeking to complete this challenge. The main ridge of the Greater Caucasus range is generally considered to form the boundary between Europe and Asia. In that case, Mount Elbrus () and Dykh-Tau (), are the two highest mountains in Europe. Excluding the Caucasus Mountains, Mont Blanc () and Monte Rosa () would be Europe's two highest mountains. The Australian continent is defined as comprising the mainland of Australia and proximate islands on the same continental shelf, including Tasmania and New Guinea. In the convention of the seven continents, one of the continents is the region of Australasia, which includes for example the mountainous islands of New Zealand. For both the geological and conventional continent, New Guinea's Puncak Jaya / Carstensz Pyramid () and Puncak Mandala () are the two highest summits. When considering a continent as a continuous landmass surrounded by oceans, mainland Australia would be its own continent, with Mount Kosciuszko () and Mount Townsend () as its two highest summits.
