Answer Question

3 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Most people would guess Colorado, but it is Nevada, in the west.
    Nevada has more than 300 named mountain ranges, all running north-south as part of the Great Basin complex. Elevations range from 2,000 to 3,000 feet. The state has the most number of peaks above 10,000 feet.
    The highest peaks are in the "cold desert" climates of the White Mountains, near Mount Whitney, the highest point in the Lower 48 states, with Boundary Peak (13,145 feet); and Wheeler Peak (13,063 feet) in Great Basin National Park, near the Utah border to the northeast.
