Are there mountains in Nebraska?
Not really. Nebraska is in what we call the Great Plains of the central United States. There are some "hills" there, mostly in what is called the panhandle. That's the western part of the state which is above Colorado and adjacent to Wyoming. But there aren't really any mountains per se in Nebraska. Just some areas of somewhat higher elevation. The Rocky Mountains begin farther over to the west from Nebraska. The Missouri-Mississippi waterway is along its eastern border, and there are no dramatic changes of elevation there. The elevation of the state is generally about 4,400 feet above sea level, and the highest point in the state is Panorama Point, at about 5,400 feet. A 1,000 foot mountain is still a thousand feet high, but it isn't a mountain to anyone who has see, say, the Rocky Mountains, which are a few hundred miles to the west.
