You can't count manmade summits like my local mountain, Mount Trashmore (an old garbage dump) even if it is the tallest thing around. So with that being said my favorite midwest summits are that one hill in northwest Illinois, and a big rock in southwest Wisconsin that overlooks a trout stream. It's like 200 feet tall!!!

My favorite is the top of the Hancock. It's the third-highest point in Illinois, and you can hike to the top once a year.

It is, but the trails are mostly in canyons so there's no view. Buffalo Rock has a nice view, but I can't find any pictures I've taken.

Starved Rock had so much trash in it. I was quite surprised.

Taum Sauk is pretty cool. It's got some pretty fun trails around around the 'peak'.

Inspiration Peak is the highest peak of the Leaf Hills Moraines and of Otter Tail County in the U.S. State of Minnesota. It is 22 miles (36 km) northwest of Alexandria. The peak rises about 400 feet (122 m) above the surrounding plains, to an elevation of about 1750 feet (533 m) above sea level.[1] It is the central feature of Inspiration Peak State Wayside Park, a small park maintained by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, which manages it from nearby Lake Carlos State Park. The wayside has a paved parking lot and a picnic area. The hike to the top is a short but strenuous walk up a well-worn trail from the parking lot.[1] "strenuous" lol yeah ok duder
