Mount Paltry has gained global attention for an unusual claim — being recognized as 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝. Unlike towering peaks that scrape the clouds, this tiny geological rise stands barely higher than a small hill. Yet what it lacks in height, it makes up for in curiosity and scientific interest. 𝐌𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐬 push land upward over long periods, and Mount Paltry represents this process at its most minimal scale, giving geologists insight into how even the smallest uplifts can shape the landscape.

7cm is not paltry, that’s an incredibly huge distance if you look at it from a realistic point of view. I’d even go as far as to say that 7cm is unnaturally large, probably biologically impossible. Even 6cm would still be very large and satisfying
I have a feeling you’re not talking about mountains anymore.
Wait, that’s actually pretty neat, it just jutted up out of the ground like that?
Give it a few eons and that name is going to be kind of ironic

i’d give the mountain eons, but not humanity to name it so.
What is this? Portland, for ants?
Such a paltry little thing.
