United States

The topography of the United States is characterized by diverse and dynamic landscapes that vary widely across the country. In the east, rolling hills and low mountains transition into the Appalachian Mountains, featuring peaks that generally reach around 6,000 feet (1,829 meters). Moving westward, the terrain shifts to the expansive Great Plains, which stretch for over 1,300 miles (2,092 meters) and are noted for their flatness, averaging around 1,000 feet (305 meters) in elevation​. The western region is dominated by the Rocky Mountains, where elevations soar, including Denali in Alaska, the highest point in North America at 20,310 feet (6,190 meters). This mountainous terrain gives way to varied landscapes such as plateaus and canyons, particularly in the Four Corners area​. Additionally, the Great Basin features an array of fault-block mountains and valleys that create a unique pattern of alternating high and low terrain, while the Pacific Northwest is marked by volcanic activity, leading to rugged, scenic vistas​. Overall, the U.S. showcases a rich tapestry of geological formations and elevations, reflecting its complex geological history and climatic conditions.
