Bukadaban Feng

Bukadaban Feng reaches an elevation of 6,860 meters above sea level, marking the border between Xinjiang and Qinghai provinces in northwestern China.

Earlier geographic measurements incorrectly recorded the mountain's height at 7,720 meters, which remained on various maps until modern surveying techniques provided accurate data.

The name translates to 'bison peak' in the Uyghur language, reflecting the connection between local wildlife and traditional naming practices in the region.

Travelers seeking to reach the mountain need extensive preparations as the location remains distant from established roads and lacks basic infrastructure.

Despite its substantial height and geographic significance, the mountain peak has not recorded any successful climbing expeditions to its summit.
