Only to drop a bit of wisdom. I am from Massachusetts. While we dont have as majestic of a view Whoville is believed to be based on a real town and the mountain is based on a real mountain. The town is Easthampton and the mountain is Mt Tom. If you google the latter the shape is rather similar. also ill drop a link for the story. I do the hike up Grinches mountain every year to look upon Whoville

Edit : adding a pic of Mt Tom

Nope thats not Khumbu then. Annapurna I is further south like an enclave. Everest on rare summer days can be very clear and look similar to this.

I've climbed that sucker and it stinks of sulfur around the crater and I got a corneal abrasion from blowing snow on the way down (had to pull goggles down due to fogging).

It’s actually a very popular ski descent, but you have to hike up it. It takes about 7 hours for an average group to reach the summit.

I don't know, i took it on the way to Annapurna base camp, but i never asked the name of the valley.
Edit: i'm 99.9% sure it isn't Everest, though.

I also think part of the reason the ski area is called mt baker because it sits in Mt Baker national park.

That's really pretty, but Unknown Peak is a dumb name for a mountain

Man, these are always so cool to see. I assume it's because of cold air or environment creating further density in the cloud structure. When I was in Iceland, I got to see these quite often around the glacial ranges. It was incredible every time. Wife and i called them stuck clouds. They wouldn't move or dissipate; just kinda kicked it there looking beautiful.

Grew up under its shadow in the Skagit Valley. Couldn’t ask for a more beautiful place to live.

He does this on every mountain image he posts. I remember seeing his mt hood picture a while ago and it was comical.
