sandy hills. 2 inches of rain can cause a flash flood. Florida is also
all sand,but it is "flat" no flash floods here. Lots of rain brings the
water level up out of the ground,and that is the reason for all its
swamp land,and shallow lakes,and ponds. Reality is man has raised up
the land about 4 feet for homes highways and cities. This week man has
built the tallest mountain here in Florida. It is called Mt. Everest.and
it is only 12 miles from me. TreBert


So how high is it?

There is a group of mountain climbers whose goal it is to climb the
highest mountain in each of the 50 states. In Oregon that would be Mt.
Hood at at 11,249 feet.

In Washington it would be Mt. Ranier at 14,411feet.

In Iowa it's just a bump in the middle of a corn field called Hawkeye
Point at 1,670 feet!

So I was wondering where climbers go to climb the highest mountain in
Florida? I think I asked you this before, but instead of putting you
on the spot again, I found a handy website that tells me the answer for
every state.

It says Briton Hill for Florida at 345 feet!

Boy, even flatland Iowa has that beat!

I couldn't even find a picture of that mole hill!
