When did you last go to the top of a mountain?
-
@evan Took the train to The Gornergrat about 45 days ago, as luck would have it. Before that, I think the last time I'd been to the top of a mountain was 2009, when I hiked to the top of the Pai Inácio. I mean, I did visit a mountain in Chile in 2015, but I'm not sure if the place I went to was the top or not.

@evan I'm excited for your answer to this poll when it's done.

@wjmaggos does it?

Living near the Cascades means this question gets complicated. There are mountains, and then there are mountains where someone in the parking lot is still in sandals.

@evan immediately thought of the film “The Englishman who went up a hill but came down a mountain”

@evan I live in the Netherlands - what's a mountain.

@gam3 you know how when you're riding your bike on a bridge over a gracht, and it's a little raised in the centre, so it's hard going up but easy going down? Multiply that by about 1000 and it's a mountain.

@evan Amusing, given i just came back of a weekend doing just that. So, Friday for me!

@evan would have been Cerro Mejía in 2009

@stanley I think it's also vernacular for having an orgasm, so we could throw that definition into the mix too.

@gam3 Hold on! I had another one: imagine a dike on the side of a canal. Now, imagine it pushed about 1000 times higher into the sky. And it's a little pointy. And there's no bike path on top.
