I live in the mountains. 2000 feet above sea level. The nearest river is a mile away and 40 feet of elevation below us. The river normally is 3 feet deep and 10 feet wide, when the area gets a lot of rain it can run about 8 feet deep, but no worries because that's how high the bank is. When Helene hit, the flood waters rose up to our street.
2000 feet is barely foothills. We build taller buildings than 2000 feet. When I hear "mountains" i expect a visable treeline at the very least. Mt hood, Mt Shasta, the Rockies, the Sierra Nevadas, those are mountains and ranges. You live in the hills.
