  1. 1.0 1.1 The elevation given here is from SRTM data and independently confirmed by ASTER GDEM. Elevations around 3,000 m given by other authorities should be discounted. The contours around the summit are missing from official Chilean topographic mapping.
  2. 2.0 2.1 2.2 2.3 "Argentina and Chile, Southern: Patagonia Ultra-Prominences" Peaklist.org. Listed as "Volcán Maca". Maca is a smooth volcanic cone, and SRTM indicates a summit elevation of 2300m ± 20m. This is supported by Biggar in "The Andes". Cited elevations of 2960-3079m are based on gross exaggeration.Note 9 Retrieved 2012-04-16.
