Appalachians are also much, much, much older so they are more...well rounded one could say. And far shorter.

Right it’s hard to compare mountains that are almost half a billion years as opposed to one’s that are less than 100 million.

The Rockies are of course more majestic and stunning to look at, but I think the Appalachians are a more pleasant place to hang out. It's just a completely different vibe. The former is imposing, the latter is welcoming.
