Standing at 29.028ft or 8.848m high Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world
No...it is located in the Himalayas between Nepal and Tibet. That's Asia.
As they are currently measured, Mt. Everest is the tallest mountain on Earth - at a little over 29,000 feet above sea level. Mt McKinley (Denali), is somewhere around 18 or 19,000 feet high. Thus, Mt Everest is nearly two miles higher. In fact, most of the major mountains of the Himalaya and Karakoram range are much higher than any mountain in North America. The base camp at K2, for example, is at a higher elevation than the top of Mt McKinley.
Mt. McKinley is the highest mountain in the continental U.S. It does not rank in the top 100 mountains in the world. Lupghar Sar in Pakistan is ranked 109th at 23,622 ft., while Mt. McKinley is only 20,320 ft in elevation.
Mount Everest is higher than any mountain because it is the highest mountain in the world.
Alaska has a higher mountain (Mt. McKinley, aka Mt. Denali) than California's highest peak (Mt. Bachelor.)
The distance as the crow flys between Mount Everest and Mount McKinley is about 5,393 miles.
