MOUNTAIN CLASSIFICATION
As part of its commitment to developing international standards for mountaineering, the UIAA officially classified the 129 main peaks of the Pyrenees. In December 1995, the UIAA Bulletin (newsletter) published an official list of the 129 main peaks of the Pyrenees and the 83 secondary peaks.
Background
This list is the result of many years of work by a group of mountaineers from both Spain and France led by Jean Buyse. The guiding principles used in this list are very similar, if not equivalent, to those used for the Alps. The distinction between main peaks and secondary peaks, and rigid criteria of acceptance have been defined: peaks must have a name, and be on a map or guidebook to be considered for entry.
If they are the culmination (highest) point of a given mountain, or elevations at a meeting of at least three ridges descending from the same summit and delimiting the slopes of said summit, they have been included in the main list. If they satisfy the first two, but none of these last two criteria, then they appear in the list of secondary peaks.
