RE: Hike#57: Gloria Falls Attempt
The hikes you go on look fantastic ! Where I live it’s quite a flat landscape. I need to get to the north part of Sweden to get a mountainous landscape. America really has a lot to offer when it comes to nature, and with the size of America there is a lot of different scenery to choose from. How tall are the mountains in this region where you live?
I have no idea! They are really tall though in some areas. Here's what I found when I googled it
South and east of Salt Lake City are many peaks that surpass 11,000 feet (3,400 m), including Mount Timpanogos (12,008 feet [3,660 m]), the highest point in the Wasatch. The mountains tower more than 6,000 feet (1,830 m) above the lake valley immediately to their west.
I haven't been to Mount Timpanogos but it's on my list for this years hiking. I wish I could visit Sweden even without the mountains <3
Wow those are really tall mountains! Thanks for writing the height in meters as well haha. I just looked up the height of the tallest mountain in Sweden (Kebnekaise) is only 2100 meters, not very impressive.
There is a trail in the north of Sweden called Kungsleden, it is quite famous and the length is around 400 kilometers and you cross through 4 national parks. It’s quite famous and some of my friends did the trail and said it was really beautiful
