The tallest mountains on each of the seven continents are together known as The Seven Summits. The Seven Summits are a group of chosen peaks that span the vast extremities of the world, from the Himalayas' thin atmosphere to the plains of Africa and the polar glaciers of Antarctica. Only 350 individuals worldwide have climbed all seven summits to date. The most precise list of the summits is called the Bass list, after the American mountaineer Dick Bass who reached all of them in April 1985. The Bass Seven Summits are Everest (8,848 m), Aconcagua (6,961 m), Denali (6,194 m), Kilimanjaro (5,895 m), Elbrus (5,642 m), Vinson (4,892 m), and Kosciuszko (4,892 m) in Asia, South America, Europe, North America, and Australia (2,228 m).
