Mount Humol

Mount Humol was a mountain peak in the Himalayas covered by the Pindari Glacier.

History
To avoid crashing with their out-of-fuel aircraft in 1935, Indiana Jones, Willie Scott and Short Round leapt from the plane in an inflatable life raft. Cushioned by the snow of the Pindari Glacier, the raft was then carried down the mountain where it would eventually come to a stop near the Indian village of Mayapore.

Behind the scenes
Mount Humol was identified in the the soundtrack of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom with "Slalom On Mt. Humol". Indiana Jones: The Ultimate Guide would later elaborate on the geographic area but the soundtrack is the only source to specifically give the mountain a name.

"Humol" in Cebuano, a language of the Philippines, translates as "soaking" in English, an appropriate name for the Temple of Doom mountain that sends the protagonists off a cliff into the rapids of the Pindari River.
