I’ve never verified it, maybe because I’m scared it won’t be true.
But one of the few facts I remember to this day from 8th grade history, ages ago, is that no land is more than 20 feet above sea level in all of Florida.

- hansthehorse 8y ago105 meters is close enough to 345 feet to call them the same, and I think you mean Britton Hill not Sugarloaf.
- eesmith 8y agoThe second paragraph of the article starts "What is the flattest state? Florida is the obvious answer, since its highest point is only 105m. above sea level, ..." I grew up in Miami, at about 22ft elevation. The highest point in Miami-Dade is about twice that height above sea level.
