Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania's topography is characterized by its rich diversity, ranging from the rugged Appalachian Mountains in the south to the flatlands of the northern plateau. The state's elevation varies significantly, with the highest point being Mount Davis at approximately 3,213 feet (979 meters) and the lowest at sea level along the Delaware River. The southern regions are marked by rolling hills and valleys, interspersed with the scenic Blue Mountain Ridge and significant waterways like the Susquehanna River.

This intricate mix of mountains, valleys, and rivers creates a visually striking and ecologically rich environment, making Pennsylvania a captivating destination for nature lovers and geologists alike.
