Ushite

Ushite (Bulgarian: Ушите) is a 1,978 m peak in the Pirin mountain range, south-western Bulgaria, making it the highest summit in South Pirin.[1] It is situated on the main mountain ridge between the peaks of Sveshtnik (1,975 m) and Mutorok (1,971 m). Ushite is covered with forests. In Bulgarian its name means "the ears" and the etymology is linked with the presence of several rock piles on the summit likened to ears.[2]

gollark: I'm not sure why, but I never got it to work correctly.
gollark: The timing *shouldn't* be hard; you should just be able to use the perfectly knowable velocity of the laser; but it somehow is.
gollark: You don't need full pathing. In most situations it'd probably just be raycasting to determine the best available direction.
gollark: That is HARDLY the problem.
