Ojos del Salado was even higher than Ojos del Salado. Later measurements using more precise equipment showed that Ojos del Salado is about higher than Pissis. Furthermore, in 2007 a Chilean–Argentine–European expedition organized by Andes Magazine and Azimut 360 performed a survey on both Ojos del Salado and Monte Pissis using more accurate instruments. It found the former to be and the latter Although this fits within recent handheld GPS surveys, which have estimated the mountain to be between and , the vertical error margin of the expedition's equipment, , leaves uncertainty as to the mountain's more precise altitude. Ojos del Salado has
Volcanic Seven Summits Although Aconcagua, the highest peak in South America and the highest peak in the western hemisphere, does have a volcanic origin, its current high point is due to geological processes rather than being strictly volcanic. Due to this, Aconcagua is not considered to be a volcano on its own, at least not as a member of Volcanic Seven Summits. Topographic maps of the Argentina and Chile border region which contains the highest peaks suffer from poor accuracy, with elevation errors exceeding in many cases. However, the current consensus based on the most recent measurements places Ojos del Salado as the
