What altitude do you live at? (place, map, North, colder)

[MTSilvertip]

My home in town is at 4200 feet, my cabin is 6500 above sea level.

The lowest elevation in my state is 1800 feet.

finally someone who lives at an altitude above 1000 meters... I'm kinda shocked that no one else here seems to live at least 400 meters above sea level...

[dunno what to put here]

^^ well, there are very few settlements that high in the UK, the highest being Flash in Staffordshire at 463m.

I live around 25-30 m above sea level. I remember ricardobrazil lives in Sao Paulo, so he's probably around 700-800 m above sea level.

Flash, that's a few minutes drive from here.

Got to admit for this contest anyway, I do have a slight advantage as I live about 10 miles east of the continental divide, and I am a LOOOOOOONG way from the ocean

Much of my state is pretty high elevation wise, including part of the Yellowstone Plateau. We aren't as high as some places, our highest peak is only 12,000 feet, (3904 meters according to wiki Granite Peak (Montana - Ask.com Encyclopedia)

Our climate is pretty rough for most folks to live in, lots of snow and ice, Blizzards, long winters, spring floods, high winds, very cold temperatures.

Usually living near a coast is much more to what people like. nearly 2/3rds of Americans live within 150 miles of a coast, so don't be surprised it took a while to find somebody from the High Lonesome, there aren't nearly as many of us

Well, there goes my standing of being the highest one on this thread.

About a 15 minute walk. Portsmouth is completely flat & most of it is only around 7m asl, between me & the beach is an area below sea level that flooded badly a few years ago...
