Another boulderite checking in... Boulder is right on the foothills and mostly on the plains, not the mountains...you can just get to a mountain within 10 minutes.
sea level checking in, err Boulder you are nigh a mile high.
It would take more than 10 minutes to fly off the mountain you are already on.
So you consider Kansas a mountain then? Interesting...
Oh high Plateau
it’s a very very wide one

Windiness, as you say, is indeed correlated with exposure. The top three ways of exposing oneself are: ocean (or the next best thing for land lubbers: coast next to ocean), mountain, and wide open space.
