Spectacular ranges and beautiful scenery for hikes grace the most famous mountain ranges. From the Tetons, where skiing is popular in the United States, to Asian mountain ranges, virtually unexplored by Western society, to Europe, where many people hike and enjoy the beauty and splendor of their rantes, to the Alps, where Heidi yodeled and you heard the ever present theme of "Riccola", mountain ranges inspire us all!

How Many Have You Seen?

Growing up in Southern Ohio, I did not see mountains. I dd see hills and many of them.

When you are little, you think the hills are larger than they really are. You rush to the top and declare yourself King! That is where our games of "King of the Mountain" originated anyway.

When we took trips from Ohio to Florida to visit my Grandparents, I remember my first glances of the majestic Smokey Mountains. I remember my dad driving, while pulling the trailer around some of those hairpin turns and making us all wonder if we were going to hang on. I saw the movie "The Long, Long Trailer" with Lucy and Desi in my early years and riding in the Smokies always reminded me of that.

Through the years, I have seen many mountain ranges on several continents and am always in awe of them! I hope you are as interested in this information as I am and hope you enjoy this website!
