Wrangell - St. Elias National Park and Preserve is the largest in the NPS system at 13.2 million acres (20,625 sq miles). Until Wrangell - St. Elias was added in 1980, Yellowstone, at 2,219,789 acres (3,472 sq mile) was the largest and still is the largest in the lower 48 states.

If you're thinking of the highest peak, then yes it is Mt. Everest, but as many do not know, the island of Hawaii is actually a mountain submerged in water, whose height surpasses that of Mt. Everest.

Whats the largest state in the world\nhows that to start with

Forces brewing deep beneath Yellowstone National Park could be making one of the largest volcanoes on Earth even bigger, a new study reveals. \n\nIn the past decade, part of the volcano has risen nearly five inches, most likely due to a backup of flowing molten rock miles below the planet's crust.\n\nWhile the rise may not be noticeable to the casual hiker, the activity may have cracked the crust in the park's famous Norris Geyser Basin (NGB), leading to the formation of new fumaroles—holes that vent smoke and gas—and the reawakening of some of the area's geysers, including Steamboat, the largest geyser in the world.\n\nYellowstone last erupted about 640,000 years ago, spewing 240 cubic miles of material. Despite the newly discovered activity, researchers don't expect it to erupt any time soon. Eventually, however, it could explode again as a super-volcano that would destroy life for hundreds of miles around and coat the entire country in ash.\n\nRadar observations from the European Space Agency's ERS-2 satellite reveal that the jellybean-shaped Yellowstone caldera—a giant depression caused by past volcanic explosions—began to rise in 1995. \n\nAlthough the caldera floor started to sink in late 1997, part of the north rim, called the north rim uplift anomaly (NUA) continued rising until 2003.\n\nMolten rock called magma rises from the Earth's core under Sour Creek dome, a major feature in the eastern section of the caldera. When the magma reaches the mantle layer, six to 12 miles below the surface, it spreads like a pancake before branching off into several tunnels.\n\nMagma flow is controlled by natural valves—one at Sour Creek dome that lets magma enter the system, and others that allow it to flow out. The outflow valve below the north rim uplift anomaly, however, can only pass so much magma at once. \n\n"Magma's always coming up in Sour Creek dome and going through the system," USGS research geophysicist Charles Wicks told LiveScience. "But maybe there are pulses when more comes up. That may be what causes the surface to rise."\n\nThe pulses might be more than the outflow valve can handle—like trying to squeeze all the toothpaste out of the tube at once. As the molten material pushes out on the surrounding rock, the ground around the valve expands and cracks. \n\nThis could explain why the uplift anomaly has risen and the Norris Geyser Basin has become more active, Wicks said. Another explanation is that nearby geothermic changes and seismic activity altered the shape of the valve, perhaps narrowing it. However, previous studies have indicated that no such alterations have occurred, and that changes in flow rate more likely cause these deformations.\n\nThe five-inch increase at the uplift anomaly probably wasn't noticed by many tourists, but the changes in the Norris Geyser Basin were easily spotted by some. After a nine year period of inactivity, Steamboat Geyser erupted in May, 2000, and has erupted five times since. Reaching more than 300 feet in the air, Steamboat produces the highest plumes of any geyser in the world.\n\nSince 1989, Pork Chop geyser was active only as a hot spring, but in the summer of 2003 it reawakened as a geyser. Also that summer, several footpaths near the Norris Geyser Basin were closed because of near-boiling ground temperatures.\n\nAnd a 250-foot line of new fumaroles, holes venting hot smoke and gases, formed near Nymph Lake to the north of the uplift anomaly. \n\n"But when the [uplift anomaly] quit inflating in 2002 and 2003, the thermal unrest died off too," Wicks said. "So we think there's pretty good evidence for tying these events together."\n\nDespite these changes, Wicks doesn't believe that Yellowstone is ready to erupt.\n\n"This is probably an ongoing feature in Yellowstone. We've only been able to study it like this for 10 years, so we're still not sure what's normal and what&

Yellowstone National Park - it's referred to as a supervolcano, and if (when) it goes off, we're all in deep "lava".

Yep, it's Michigan. It's the biggest by a long shot. The top 5...\n\n1 Michigan 96,810 square miles\n2 Florida 65,758 \n3 Wisconsin 65,503\n4 Georgia 59,441\n5 Illinois 57,918\n\nThe funny thing is Georgia likes to claim being the largest...

the largest living thing is not plant or animal it is a fungus that covers 2200 acres of land and is 2400 years old in Malheur National Forest in the Blue Mountains of eastern Oregon. the species name is Armillaria ostoyae

Super Volcanoes are planet killers!!! Yellowstone is the first one that comes to my mind.\n\nHere's what wikipedia says:\n\n"A supervolcano refers to a volcano that produces the largest and most voluminous kinds of eruption on Earth. The actual explosivity of these eruptions varies, but the sheer volume of extruded magma is enough to radically alter the landscape and severely impact global climate for years, with a cataclysmic effect on life.\n\nThe term was originally coined by the producers of the BBC popular science program, Horizon, in 2000 to refer to these types of eruption. That investigation brought the subject more into the public eye, leading to further studies of the possible effects. At first, supervolcano was not a technical term used in volcanology, but more recently, in 2003 and 2004, the term has been used in articles. Though there is no well-defined minimum size for a "supervolcano", there are at least two types of volcanic eruption that have been identified as supervolcanoes: massive eruptions and large igneous provinces."

Is this a trick question? Mt. Everest was the tallest, whether people measured it or not.\n\nOr do you mean, which one did we THINK was the tallest before Everest took that title? Better ask what you mean!

Greenland!\nits also the world's largest natural park!

Alaska.\n\n"The state with the most lakes is Alaska and not Minnesota despite the "10,000 Lakes" slogan on its license plates. Alaska is home to more than three million lakes."

I always like to say the Mauna Loa volcano, which from base to peak is 1-2,000 feet higher than Mt. Everest. 16,000 ft. of it is below sea level though hehe. \n\nThe wording of the question prolly means Everest is a better answer but, everyone else already answered Everest anyways hehe.

Utah....make no assumptions this is where it gets deep.\n\nSalt Lake City to be exact.

You don't want to, believe me. It's way to flat. I would go for some mountians or something like that. But if you insist...I would trying this web-site \n\nhttp://www.ils.unc.edu/parkproject/visit/ncmap.html\n\nHave fun ;)
