a moutain too steep

Postby Mike Thurman » Fri Apr 30, 2004 6:25 am

I was fooling around with TerrainTools2002, and i made this little mountain ( well, not actually that little ), it's exactly 19332 ft high at the peak! I call it Mount Cooie, Here are a few shots of it...     Enjoy! :D

That's a cool looking mountain!  8) It reminds me of some mountains I've seen in Venuzuela but it was much shorter and didn't have that big peak in the middle. Must be some sight when flying by  ;D

I was just thinking the same thing. Does anybody remember that 60,000ft spire in Guyana? That thing was huge!
