A cool guide on Elevation in the United States

It looks to be a repost from several years prior, from a different author newishtodc.
- Reposting from Reddit is a data preservation duty.
  
  Yes, but I meant that the linked Reddit post itself was a repost, at lower resolution even, and that one also had been a repost, of this one with a mod note claiming that it is OC.
  So I was mentioning the true (we think?) rather than merely the latest source and author. I hope that helps.

I’m not a fan of bots reposting stuff from reddit onto lemmy. Lemmy for me was supposed to be a complete replacement of reddit, not just a proxy.
- Meh, we need content. Until we get more people here posting OC, and as long as people comment, which is where the interesting parts have always been in my opinion, I'm okay with it.
- Well the comments aren't reposts at least. I get way more insight and engagement in here than I ever did on reddit
- Reddit isn't original content its just an aggregator so it should be fine to post interesting reddit posts to lemmy. But having a bot do it is just copying the trash from reddit over to here with no filter.

I have spent a lot of time in denver, and also a lot of time in the Smoky mountains in the East which looked pretty mild compared to the Western mountains on the map and that's pretty accurate. And yes the map does go down to zero. I realize that a lot of Kansas gains elevation towards Colorado, and eastern Colorado gains elevation towards the mountains, I've driven through there so many times. I think the map's pretty good
