	Im pretty sure this is a little Wyoming biased...

	I agree. It would be a good quiz if it stuck to the actual ranges instead of putting in specific subranges, or include all subranges

	Also on the subject of consistency, the Smokies are a subrange of the Appalachians

	Lousy quiz. Plenty of omissions. Where are the Brooks Range, Olympic Mountains, Sierra Nevadas, Black Hills, Ozarks, etc.? Also, it is the Great Smoky Mountains, not just Smoky Mountains, and Basin and Range Province is not a mountain range. It is a physiographic (I think that's the right word) region of the country. Good idea. Lousy execution.

	I know there were a lot of omissions I had to take a break to take care of something and wasn't able to get back to the quiz for a few hours. It's finished now, I know it seemed Wyoming biased at first but all ranges are accounted for now with just a few omissions of extremely small ranges and very unknown ranges. Otis89, I consider the Basin and Range Province worthy of being included in my quiz because of the fact that all ranges within the province were created through the same tectonic event, the stretching of the North American Plate. It is a province that consists of many different smaller mountain ranges, much like the Rocky Mountains, which are made up of many smaller ranges but formed through plate subduction rather than the stretching of a plate. Also otis89, the Olympic Mountains in Washington were included when you made your post, you are retarded.

	Blue Mountains in northeastern Oregon or the Chugach and Kenai mountains near Anchorage, yet one in Connecticut?

	Very arbitrary selection. In more than one case you've left out the highest range in a given state.

	John:	Oct 13th, 2010 at 22:32 GMT	1 point
	I'm sure that the same is true of other states but as a Coloradan, I noticed you've left out some major subranges including the Sangre de Cristos (run into New Mexico as well), Front Range, Wet Mountains, and Park Range. The Sangres and Front Range are both particularly important.
