I drove from Texas to Colorado via Kansas. They call Denver the mile high city. I guess that makes the western border of Kansas three quarters of a mile high.
Mt. Sunflower is the highest point in the state, not far from the Colorado line. It is 4039 feet over sea level. I sit not far from the Missouri Border at 1005 feet. So it goes up about 3000 feet from were I live to the “Summit” of “Mt” Sunflower.
If anyone wants to climb a mountain on wheelchair or crutches, western Kansas has your mountain.

“Its 1/2 mile from the base of the hill to the top. There is a summit register.”
If your wheelchair or crutches do not do well on dirt and gravel, you can just drive your car right up to the summit. (And yes, Mt Sunflower looks much safer and more interesting than Panorama point in Nebraska at 5424 Feet above Sea level. (Buffalo wandering about loose.))
