Show of hands. Who would rather go to the mountains than the beach? Anyone else?

Honestly I like both.
I grew up in the mountains.
Now I live on the beach.
To me they both have their merits.

2

Both, beaches more so.

Sandcastles, visual waves, wildlife, sounds, sun tan, smells, most of all sexy bathing suits and walking artwork.

I love tidepools, but I sunburn too easily to like the beach. Of course the mountains get lots of bad weather, but they also get lots of flowers and animals.

I’m definitely a mountain girl. My grandparents had a house on a small lake in the NC mountains when I was growing up and I hated it there because there was no phone or tv reception. Boring. As I’ve gotten older I realize how wonderful that sounds and I get why all the adults in my life loved it there.

Right now, I'm in the mountains more doing biking. Maybe next year both. I'm only 5 miles from the beach, and hope by next year to be on a new standup paddleboard out in the surf.

I live on the beach, so I love going to the mountains. It's cooler, air smells fresh, it's grounding, and I love hiking. I live on an island where the mountains and ocean are all within a few minutes of where ever I am at any given moment. I love them both. Back on the mainland, I used to love going to the mountains and paddling a rubber raft in the lakes. It's all beautiful!

For my whole life, I would’ve said beach. But this spring I visited Alaska and it was AMAZING. I have a new appreciation for mountains!

Both. Mountains for riding and scenery. Beach for swimming and perving.

Mountains over beach. Definatley more of an earth than water person. I feel more connected to the mountains.

No brainer ... Mountains! Mountains! Mountains!

We have both in a very short distance... I could conceivably do both in the same day.

Sand, mozzies, greasy suntan oil, greasier tourists, blazing unremitting sun. Or cool, scenic , open uplands? Duh??

Well, I showed my hand, but I didn't see it counted in the poll!

Mountains. I live in Southwest Florida, tired of seeing beaches and my dates wanting to walk on them with someone. LOL

Both. I would also include polar regions and deserts and say, all four.

1

I hate sand. So much more fun to take the dogs on hikes

1

Mountains on the beach. Best of both.

1

I live in mountains and I do love the beach. Always nice to come home, though.

1

Mountains have lakes without sharks or jellyfish or sea urchins...

1

To be honest I live in the Pacific Northwest and we're just surrounded by ocean water im not a big fan of saltwater it's very cold and (in my opinion) smells bad I much prefer the mountains cuz that's where the snow is in the winter and I like snowboarding

Depends on the mountains.

I hated the big mountains like in Colorado. I feel at home and ease in the Ozark mountains, though.

I hate the beach too. Cannot stand the feel of sand and it never goes away. Plus when I was 12 I went to Florida and got caught in the undertow while body surfing and almost drowned. Haven't set foot near the ocean since then

1

I'm prejudiced as I live in the mountains.

Mountains. No question.

I hate the beach. It's hot. I don't like wearing swimsuits. You get sand all over.

Shark Week is enough for me. Take me to the timberline!
