Random Mountains

Brasstown Bald in the Appalachian mountains is the nearest mountain to where I live.

What about you?

This question is inspired by a similar geography question by @purplepoppy...

What's the biggest river near you?

I am about 10 miles from the Blue Hills. It is not much of a mountain but it does have ski trails.

[Iron_Man]

I want you to run up that hill on Monday morning with your shirt off in the snow

@Iron_Man I think my orthopedic surgeon would take a pretty dim view of this while he gets ready to do a total hip replacement on me on Wednesday.

[Iron_Man]

Well, when you get your new hips, then you’ll be ready to conquer Good luck on your surgery on Wednesday.

@Iron_Man thanks man

[Iron_Man]

You are very welcome

[exitseven]

[Iron_Man]

You’re very welcome

Foel Cwmcerwyn (Bald hill of Cerwyn valley) in the Preseli Hills 536m is the nearest high point but falls short of technically qualifying as a mountain. Otherwise I've got to drive east to Bannau Brycheiniog or north to Eryri for "proper" mountains.

The problem is most of our big hills got named Mynydd Xxxx long before anyone decided what a mountain actually was. Still it keeps the tourists happy so we keep quiet.

[Iron_Man]

Those are hills

[purplepoppy]

A mountain is over 600m

[Iron_Man]

Ok lol. Nice to see you up past your bedtime.

[FreyaRed]

It's flat land here, few hills but not higher than 500 m. Next mountain is 900 km away.
Scandinavian ice shield moved southwards up to Tatra and Carpathian mountains while last ice age and made everything flat here like a plane tool.

The largest mountain in the Bay Area is Mt. Diablo, which, by the way, was the inspiration for the name of the Blizzard game. The original development team was located in Walnut Creek, before their company was acquired by Blizzard.

[DeeDeeDeVour]

Li'l Mt. Allison (which is only 2,600 ft) is the closest one to me.

[RandomGirl42]

Oh! I live on the northern end of the Appalachian mountains up by the Bigelow range. I know, way to totally dox myself but oh well. 🤣

[msc545]

Oak mountain and I had to Google this to find out what the name of it was. The nearest river is called the Santa Clara River.

[Redstang88]

Define mountain, I’m on the base of one that goes to about 1700m and there’s a few over 2500m within 10 miles

[Redstang88]

Cascade Range

[Staximus]

Mount Baldy or Mount San Antonio, in the San Gabriel mountains or Angeles National Forest

[Dargil]

Near and small, lookout mountain , 1200 ft. Farther and tallest, mount mitchell in NC 6684 FT

[andreasderjuengere]

"Palm Hill" with proud 64 meters above sea level 😁

[AngryCarl2]

I guess that would be Mount Snowdon in Wales. It's only 3,650 feet but on average 8 people die there every year.

[Joshydavid25]

I live in Illinois and surrounded by the great planes.. The nearest "mountains" are mostly big hills.. But I guess if I had to say it would be the Rocky Mountains..

[NathanDavis]

this one...

[NathanDavis]

just kidding... it is this one

[slatyb]

Probably the closest to Seattle is Tiger Mountain. More spectacular is Tahoma (Mount Rainier), an amazing sight on clear days.

[DishLady]

The mountain of laundry that needs to get done after services.

[OlderAndWiser]

Since I am in Florida, I am guessing it would be Springer Mountain in Georgia.

[Lliam]

I live in the western foothills of the Sierra Nevada Range in California.

[Iron_Man]
