The Rockies compared to the Cascades\Olympics is about the same as Seattle compared to Denver. Both are impressive, but one is just more majestic and iconic.

Denver has one of the better skylines in the country IMO....but Seattle is a notch above it in most respects.

This really isn't a competition.. Seattle one of the top 5 in the US and top 30 in the world possibly.. while Denver hardly ever gets mentioned or talked about.

I respectfully vote for Seattle, though Denver has a distinctive skyline.

Denver's skyline is very underrated IMO, but Seattle's beats most cities' out of the water, including Denver's.
