Location: 6 String Ranch | I did say CT hill top. It's only 1559'. The rockies are way more, even Mt Mitchell in NC is 6600'. You still get a 40-50 mile view so we'll suffer through with that. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I guess I should enjoy my 40 or 50 mile view from my office window. If I turn north, however, the view is blocked by this darn mountain. I don't really call it a mountain, though, because it's only 7500 feet. I can't wait until it's softened and eroded so that I can see further. |

Hmmmmm....so my rock is younger than your rock. Interesting theory.
I would be more inclined to believe that there is a larger buildup of fecal matter in the area of the Appalachian chain which results in the softening and erosian. |

A nearby hike on a clear morning up Mt. Ellinor would provide a view of Mt. Baker, Mt. Rainier, Mt. St. Helens and Mt. Hood. How many active volcanoes do you guys got?
Got Lahar?

I think a more appropriate question would be "why would we want any active volcanoes"! |
