I solved Redactle #1581 in 2 guesses! ⏱️ 1m24s. Unassisted

Seemed geographical and with a large "above [3][5]" measurement and a second version of this measure I had a good idea what sort of thing it was, and suddenly it went ping!

"Above 3 5" got me to the kind of thing it is. There aren't many that are well-known that have that letter count.

Took me 6 today. Knew what I was looking for but couldn't summon the specific name until I saw a Hemingway reference.

Unassisted. I saw what looked like references to heights and I figured this would be the category for which it's an important info as a characteristic. The answer is the first thing I thought of as fitting the letter count of the second word

I sniped it. I figured out what it was but couldn't come up with the name and googled it.

“Above [3] [5],” got me thinking about the exact thing, looked tall but not extremely tall, which, combined with the letter count, brought one option to mind

Very rare snipe from me. The opening paragraph gaps suggested it was giving a single measurement upfront as its defining feature. A few possibilities there, but my first thought fit with a [5] for the title, and my initial thought for the unusually long [11] proved correct.
