Height

edit

The height of Mexican mountains varies quite a bit depending on the source of the information. It seems pretty clear that the Sierra Negra is higher than Matlalcueitl, however, which would make it sixth-highest at most (Pico de Orizaba, Popo, Ixta, Sierra N?/ Nevado de Toluca?, Matlalcueitl. The fact that the Sierra Negra isn't mentioned at all on most lists would give Matlalcueitl 5th place on those lists. --Lavintzin 03:02, 30 September 2005 (UTC)Reply

Snow

edit

The article mentions the mountain's summit being covered with snow. I have been to the summit in July and there was no snow. Perhaps it should be changed to "snow during some of the year" ? 209.98.36.253 (talk) 16:13, 27 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Coordinates

edit

The coordinates need the following fixes:

  • According to Google Maps, the coordinates given are not even on the slope of the mountain. The actuals are a bit hard to get, since it's unclear where the summit lies exactly, but they should be somewhere close to 19.230535, -98.032465. La Malinche is a very prominent feature on the map (a bright white spot surrounded by a deep green "circle", surrounded by a network of human civilization).
