The Rockies are higher than the Appalachians. The highest peak in the Rocky Mountains is Mount Elbert in Colorado, which reaches an elevation of 14,440 feet, while the highest peak in the Appalachian Mountains is Mount Mitchell in North Carolina, which reaches an elevation of 6,684 feet.
Mount Elbert in the Colorado Rockies at 14,440 feet is just 30 feet taller than Mount Rainer in the Cascades of Washington State.
The Rockies have higher elevations than the Appalachians. The highest peak in the Rockies, Mount Elbert, reaches over 14,000 feet, while the highest peak in the Appalachians, Mount Mitchell, reaches around 6,600 feet.
No, the mountains north and west of Denver have higher elevations then those to the south like the Sangre de Cristos.
Which one do you believe has more mountains? Which state do people snow ski in the winter? Snow usually falls on higher elevations. Mississippi often floods during heavy rain storms do to some low land. Do you think that maybe Colorado might have a higher elevation?
Colorado is higher in elevation than Mississippi. Colorado contains the central part of the Rocky Mountains, and Colorado's highest point is Mount Elbert, elevation 14,433 feet above sea level. The Rockies, as they are called, are part of the Continental Divide, which is like a rooftop, dividing water and snow that fall on one side of the Rockies from the other side. One side of the Rockies drains water into rivers that reach the Pacific Ocean, and the other drains the water toward the Atlantic Ocean by rivers that reach the Mississippi River, including the State of Mississippi and the Gulf of Mexico.
Colorado Springs has the higher elevation. Denver is better know because its elevation (at the state capitol building) is exactly a mile above sea level.
It is Boulder, Colorado.
at the top of the mountains yes, because the elevation is higher
Mountains have the highest elevations. Sea level is the lowest elevation.
The Bighorn Mts. have a higher elevation than The Adirondack Mts. :^)
no because the Appalachian mountains is taller than the Piedmont
