Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

These elevations look highly exaggerated. The differences in elevation aren’t that extreme.
Absolutely. You'd be able to see Colorado from most of the country if the elevation was to the same scale as the horizonal distance.
Run Google Earth (the app or in the browser) and you can see how relatively flat it all is.
Someone sounds like a flat earther
The proof is right there in the picture!!!
Well. Okay. I admit it looks like a very bumpy earth.
Nothing an iron can't fix.
Your comment made me think of if countries where people that had boob sizes relative to their peak elevation
I mean its zero to 14.5k feet. Hike to the top of Mount Whitney and tell me again it's exaggerated.
First, it's not zero. Denver is 5000ft ASL and it's in a valley (towns around it are higher). There's a slow elevation change across the Midwest to the Rockies.
Second, Passes are a thing.
Still, wagons crossing the Rockies is an amazing thing.
Many people died finding and verifying new passes. Or being scammed into being the ones to verify a new pass they thought was already verified
Most went north to Oregon originally then south to California. The Sierras are also a bitch, see the Donner party for more info.
They didn't aliens came down and moved them to the other side after experimenting on them.
