[PsychoAndy]

Probably the top of the World Trade Center.

Medicine Bow Peak in Wyoming....about 12,000 ft hiking. I've probably been higher than that snowboarding in Colorado though.

man...evans and pikes peak are weak...you basically drive all the way up....
I climbed gray's peak 2 weeks ago that was like 14200(went hungover and on 4 hours of sleep...not good) and climbed bierstadt on sunday(got 3 hours of sleep) that was like 14060...then I got done and tried to go out w/ some friends and was friggin retarded...as in they'd ask me questions and I was so tired I'd respond like 5 seconds later to their questions
I went over to a friends house to chill on a few beers and play xbox and was straight passin out...those things will really take it to you

my 23rd birthday, that's my answer to what I thought your question was


To answer your question the way you meant it, probably Macchu Pichu in Peru. I don't remember a damn thing though. I was 6 months old. The native ladies said I was the first non-indigenious baby there.

 

[HomeBrewerDude]

yeah but you can drive up pikes peak.

 

[SagaLore]

I've been in space.

 

[Beau]

Mount Timpanogos - 11,750
Mount Nebo - 11,840
Pikes peak as well.

Mt. Evans just west of Denver.

North Americas highest road. All 14 miles of the road from the entrance station to the Mount Evans summit parking area (14,130) are paved. From there, you can hike the last 130 feet (about 1/4 mile walk) to the top at 14,264 feet. After you have made this climb, you can tell all your friends: "I climbed a 14,000 foot mountain in Colorado on my vacation!"

Pikes Peak - In fact...here's a pic of me at the top of Pikes Peak

Just last week I was at the top of Harney Peak in the Black Hills of South Dakota. It's about 7114 or so feet high. Here's a panorama shot taken from the top of it.

Mount Rainier is the highest peak in the lower 48 states @ 14,441 feet.

When I went to climb it, they had their worst spring blizzard in years...

I got as far as the summit "jumping off" point at 11,500 ft.

 

[Ameesh]

i climbed sevral mountains in the himalayas which were pretty high

 

[RossMAN]

1) At the top of AMP Tower (in Sydney, Australia) you could see over the entire city, it's absolutely beautiful.
2) In an airplane.
3) When I had a single Valium pill before having my wisdom teeth removed

5500m at Thorong La on the Annapurna circuit on Nepal. Also went to the worlds highest lake, Tilico Tal at 5000m.
