The highest point in Pennsylvania is Mount Davis, with an elevation of 3,200 feet (about 980m). It is still about 100 feet lower than the lowest point in Colorado, which is on the Arikaree River, at 3,300 feet (about 1,000 m). Colorado’s highest point, Mount Elbert, is more than four times the height of Pennsylvania’s highest point, at about 14,400 feet (about 4,400 m).

The US state with the greatest difference in elevation between the highest and lowest points is Alaska, with a difference of 20,320 feet (about 6,200 m) between the highest point, Mount McKinley, and the lowest point, the sea level. The state with the second largest elevation difference is California, with a difference of 14,780 feet (about 4,500 m) between Mount Whitney and Badwater Basin.
Although Mount McKinley is the highest point in the United States, the state with the highest average elevation is actually Colorado, which also has the highest low point.
The state with the lowest highest point is Florida, with Britton Hill, which is only 345 feet (about 105m) above sea level as the highest point. It would take nearly 60 Britton Hills stacked on top of each other to form a Mount McKinley.
