Ramzi,,,,Qornet essawda is exactly 3088 meters high :)

And i wonder how mount hermon is in israel,,,it's between lebanon and syria,,,the eastern slopes belong to syria while the western slopes(part of it shebaa farms at the southwestern part of the mountain where the israeli ski station located) belong to lebanon.
