>>2846752You can't tell which is Appalachia and which is Carpathians
>>2846750Forested mountains are prettier than rocky spike mountains. The White Mountains are perfect. Feel like my folk's natural habitat.I admire the glacier lakes though.
>>2846805Mountains have vegetation zones. If they only have 1 or 2 lowermost vegetation zones, they're mountainlets.
>>2846805>highways are prettier than no highways
>>2846816I don't fetishize height, bare rock and sparse veg are plain ugly. The ideal mountain is covered in trees except for the very top from which you can obtain killer views.There's something to be said for challenging yourself with climbing intense peaks in the Alps or Himalayas, but speaking purely aesthetically they're shit.
>>2846878I don't agree. This year I hiked a forested mountain and views were ok but nothing special except for some higher mountains 20 miles away. The next day I hiked one on said higher mountains and views were way better. My brother was hiking with me and he said the same. And every photo is an undeniable proof.
>>2846883Undeniable proof of your disagreement with my statement? Because the photos you posted don't prove me wrong, they aren't appealing.
>>2846885They are applealing but the thing I wanted you to acknowledge is that the second one is more applealing than the first one cause it was made in higher mountains with much more prominent zones of vegetation
>>2846750if andes is so beautiful why do you need to polish that photo with 6 trillions photoshop filters?
>>2846878>bare rock and sparse veg are plain ugly.only if you are dead inside.
