The elevation and coordinates given here are taken from a DGPS survey by Peter Schoen and Boris Avdeev in association with GeoAT （页面存档备份，存于互联网档案馆）. It was carried out in July 2010 and made available （页面存档备份，存于互联网档案馆） in November 2010. Some sources, including the Great Soviet Encyclopedia, give the estimation of only 5,068 metres (16,627 feet), but this is the correct height of the lower western summit. Soviet era 1:50,000 mapping shows a 5,158 metre spot height to the east, and this can be verified using a
panoramic photograph （页面存档备份，存于互联网档案馆） taken from Elbrus. The true elevation is on higher ground still further east along the Shkhara ridge.
