Notes


  1. Several sources state elevation, prominence and country rank information of another peak matching the data of Mount Dulang-dulang. These sources list a mountain named "Mount Katanglad" (spelled with "Ka" instead of the "Ki" in the usual spelling of Mount Kitanglad) with an elevation of 2,941 m[2] and a prominence of 2,440 m.[3][4] Several other sources evaluated as very reliable for this information give the elevation of Mount Kitanglad (with an "i") as 2,899 m.[5][6][7] Information gathered from these sources suggests that the elevation and prominence information of Peaklist and Peakbagger is in error for Mount Katanglad (with an "a"), and likely refer to nearby Dulang-dulang. Since the discovery of this error, Peakbagger (a site previously in error over the confusion between the two peaks) now has a verified page for "Mount Dulang-dulang",[8] confirming the above information for the peak. Additionally, Peakbagger now also has a page for "Mt. Kitanglad" (with the correct spelling with an "i" and the corrected elevation data)[9] explaining the mistake, though the Kitanglad page does contain a disclaimer stating its information is currently unverified.
