Location


Cerro el Muerto (sometimes El Muerto fully translated as The Dead One ") is a range or area at the border of Argentina and Chile. It has a height of 6,510 metres (21,358 ft). It's located at Atacama Region, Copiapó Province, at the Puna de Atacama. It only receives a handful of climbing attempts every year and most are from the Chilean side.


Elevation


It has an official height of 6488 meters,[3] however, based on the elevation provided by the available Digital elevation models, SRTM (6490m[4]), ASTER (6488m[5]), SRTM filled with ASTER (6490m[6]), TanDEM-X(6533m[7]), and also a handheld GPS survey by Maximo Kausch on 12/2010 (6519 meters),[8] Muerto is about 6510 meters above sea level.[9][10][11]

The height of the nearest key col is 4414 meters.[12] so its prominence is 2096 meters. Muerto is listed as range or area, based on the Dominance system [13] and its dominance is 32.2%. Its parent peak is Ojos del Salado and the Topographic isolation is 8 kilometers.[14] This information was obtained during a research by Suzanne Imber in 2014.[15]
