Thread 213963441

Do South Dakotans even realize how much better Devil's Tower is as a tourist attraction? For one thing, unlike Rushmore, it's actually fucking massive. However small you're imagining Mt Rushmore, it's even smaller than that.

But Devil's Tower? Actual natural wonder of the world. I saw it when my parents vacationed in America when I was like seven and I still remember being disappointed with Mt Rushmore, but DT just kept getting bigger and bigger in the window and it's ancient as fuck.

What an underrated gem holy shit.

lulz

So what's our take? Trunk of the world tree or alien landing ground?

>>213965038
Isn't that just solidified lava from a volcano that's eroded away?

>>213963441 (OP)
Also, pretty lulzy how every site just lists Rushmore's elevation above sea level (lol) but fails to ever mention that it's prominence is only 136 m, which is smaller than the tallest """""""mountain""""" in the notoriously flat Denmark (Himmelbjerget, 147 m).

>>213963441 (OP)
they should get trump on the ol' rush

>>213965142
Damn, they're even lower and more flat than us.

>>213965182
Elbrus has a very tall prominence thoughbeit?

>>213965077
that's what they want you to think

>>213965142
yeah but they actually look like mountains, I'm assuming that one in Denmark looks like a large hill. Same as the "mountains" in my country, which are also just glorified hills.

>>213965038
it's ancient mulgore actually, where the now extinct tauren race came from

>>213965352
Most of the people live on flatlands, woods and swamps here.

>>213965077
Sure sure Mr. Country with highest trust in the government

>>213965542
weren't the germans disorientated and depressed whilst invading russia in ww2, as it was just cold flat fields for thousands of miles.

>>213965496
Yeah, I was memeing a bit since Himmelbjerget has tiny prominence, something like ~20 m.

>>213965610
Hot in summer, cold in winter, complete impassable mud and swampy ground between the seasons or after the rains.
Even Napoleon had most of the casualties in his army during the summer. Due to the weather and diseases.

I support Mount Rushmore purely for how much it causes Native Americans to seethe

>>213966407
You should have expected this, /out/ threads, especially about mountains WILL attract Nordic posters.

>>213966515
It is understandable. We know of such things.
