Additional Information
Depth data from Kurt Fisher database
- Viscardy, 1985: 3 km
- Cherrington, 1969: 1.85 km
Nomenclature
- Named from terrestrial Pyrenees.
- Maybe we could call the highest peak of the Montes Pyrenaeus the Aneto or Pico d'Aneto, because in the terrestrial Pyrenees the highest peak is also called the Aneto. - DannyCaes Nov 17, 2013
