The generally accepted highest summit in Europe is [[Mount Elbrus]] ({{Convert|5642|m|ft|0|disp=or|abbr=on}}) in the [[Caucasus Mountains|Caucasus]], appearing on both the Bass and Messner lists. However, because the location of the [[Boundaries between the continents of Earth#Asia and Europe|boundary between Asia and Europe]] is not universally agreed upon, its inclusion in Europe is disputed: if the [[Kuma–Manych Depression]] is used as the geological border between Asia and Europe, the Caucasus and Elbrus lie wholly in Asia. If the [[Greater Caucasus#Watershed|Greater Caucasus watershed]] is used instead, Elbrus' peaks are wholly in Europe, albeit close to the border with Asia. [[Mont Blanc]] ({{Convert|4810|m|ft|0|disp=or|abbr=on}}), lying on the border between [[France]] and [[Italy]] in the [[Graian Alps]], is seen by some to be the highest mountain in Europe.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.8000ers.com/cms/7-summits-mainmenu-199.html |title=The Seven Summits |publisher=8000ers.com}}</ref>
