Which US state has the most pride?

I think New Mexico SHOULD have the most pride because there is so much history here and we have it all! Plains, deserts, and 13,000 ft mountains.

Yea, but do you have Landfish?

Sounds like a plan, I was gonna say, may have another week or two left and they will be hard to find if not gone!
 
How high are those Appalachian Mountains?


They're not as high as the Rocky's but they range from 5,000 to almost 7.000 ft asl..

By a substantial margin, the highest peaks in the United States lie west of the Mississippi, from 20,320-foot Denali in the Alaska Range to the many mighty summits of the Rockies, the Cascades, the Sierra Nevada and the Great Basin ranges. But the loftiest mountains east of the Mississippi are still magnificent places: These Appalachian heights represent some of the oldest highlands in the world as well as critical bastions of eastern wilderness.


The highest peaks east of the Mississippi all reside in the Blue Ridge province of the Southern Appalachians, most notably in the Black and Great Smoky mountains of North Carolina and Tennessee. The top 10 are: (1) 6,684-foot Mount Mitchell, (2) 6,647-foot Mount Craig, (3) 6,643-foot Clingman's Dome, (4) 6,621-foot Mount Guyot, (5) 6,611-foot Balsam Cone, (6) 6,593-foot Mount LeConte, (7) 6,571-foot Mount Gibbes, (8) 6,475-foot Potato Hill, (9) 6,417-foot Mount Chapman, and (10) 6,410-foot Richland Balsam.

West Virginia Mountains range from 4,000 to 5,000 ft.......But, there is nothing gradual about them, the sun comes up 10AM and goes down at 3pm........There's a reason why we have one leg longer than the other....lol

The highest in raw elevation lie west of the Rockies, but which mountains are the TALLEST? The base elevation of the Rockies is quite a ways up there.
