Twice as high in elevation above sea level*
Porcupine Rim Lookout (pictured) is 7360’, the road immediately below it is ‘6000. Thats a 1200’ prominence which is a typical Western North Carolina prominence.

I just watched 14 Peaks, and seeing a guy traipse up Everest while a bunch of white dudes pay 40k to have sherpas roll out a red carpet for them to gasp and wheeze like they did the work is laughable. The mountain doesn't want you.

Well, the Colorado Plateau has a lot to do with the altitude of these mountains… the La Sals are only like 12k. And with your logic that means most peaks in the central Rockies are prettier than this picture of Utah…

Porcupine rim. Awesome trail if you can get a lift to the trailhead.

Chiricahua has some of my favorite easily-accessible cool igneous petrology in north America.
If you walk up the Sugarloaf mountain trail and pay attention to the minerals in the rocks you can track the inversion of the magma chamber as it was progressively erupted. Great stuff.

I wouldn’t say this is the Superstitions’ most flattering angle.

You're right; this is the first world problem. Like every meal on our table, all farmers, machine operators, logistic providers and others risk their lives to put the meals on our table. We should not have eaten at all.
As we step out of the house, the lithium battery, oil miner, other miners, factory workers and public transport drivers are risking their lives to enable us to go places.
Like the house we live in, the concrete makers, the rock mining, and the wood logger are risking their lives to build our home.
I discussed this with my guide when I was there. He told me that he did not have income for nearly three years and never had enough money to buy a laptop for his daughter's school. My trip to Everest Base Camp enabled him to pay back some debt, and I just sent his daughter a second-hand laptop for Christmas.
Many of my friends discussed this with me before. I am glad I can help them, and more tourists visiting the Everest Base Camp will improve the local welfare.
