“harp, you can probably describe colorado better than VERY MOUNTAINS”

i mean, probably, but keep in mind i’m from georgia. our mountains look like this

just gentle lil lumps. there’s mountains and then there’s MOUNTAINS, you feel me

Colorado is VERY MOUNTAINS tho, that’s like the pride of the state.  This is taken… about three miles from my parent’s house:

(2013, pretty good year for snowpack.  Also represented: about a 8000 ft change in elevation from where the pic is taken to the top of Mt. Audubon.)

but if anywhere in North America gets the VERY MOUNTAINS Blue Ribbon of Excellence, It’s Alberta, Canada because HOLY SHIT:

I can’t find numbers on the elevation change here but LOOK AT THE DRAMA OF THIS UP LIFT.  FUCK.
