"Geographers, on the other hand, who's
primary interests often concern topographic anomalies like mountains
and basins, usually reserve the term 'mountain' for a positive
topographic feature which rises to a height of at least 305 meters
above the surrounding terrain. Anything less than 305 meters in
height is considered a hill, and anything considerably less than 305
meters is termed a 'hillock.' "
