Argentina, China, Nepal, and Pakistan all have mountain ranges that tower over 20,000 feet high. Much of the Himalayas lies in Nepal, China, and Pakistan. Each of those countries has at least one mountain peak that is over 28,000 feet high. Argentina is home to the Andes (which also runs through Chile). Argentina's highest peak is over 22,000 feet high. The United States has one mountain over 20,000 feet: Mt. McKinley in Alaska. Though the Alps run through Switzerland and Austria, neither country has a mountain peak anywhere near 20,000 feet. Russia is home to Caucasus Mountains, but its highest peak is about 1,500 miles short of 20,000. Tanzania has Mt. Kilimanjaro, which is less than 700 feet short of 20,000
