In this work, we compare optical and radio detectors by providing an independent calculation of a generic detector concept that looks for optical Cherenkov from a high-elevation mountain. We calculate its sensitivity to tau neutrinos using the EASCherSim optical Cherenkov simulation and the POINSSETA monte carlo simulation code for tau neutrino-induced air showers. We present different sensitivity curves for the detector under the assumption of various photoelectron thresholds and trigger considerations of the telescope using this framework and discuss the future of the experiment in the context of high-energy neutrino astrophysics.
