The northern part of the country is covered by forest mountain ranges and the southern part by desert, desert steppe, and steppe areas with low mountains. High snow-capped mountains and glaciers and the eastern part by vast plains and wild heaths dominate the western part. The Mongolian environment has a large variety of features. Mongolia can be divided into six zones; desert, mountain, mountain taiga, mountain forest steppe, arid steppe and taiga.

The mountain belt of the Mongol Altai, Khangai and Khentii mountainous regions, with their perpetual snow, glaciers, traces and signs of ancient ice covers, has been well preserved due to a constantly cold climate and strong winds. About 81% of the country is higher than 1000 meters above sea level and the average elevation is 1580 meters.

Geography and climate vary greatly across the United States. The total area of the US is over 9.6 million square kilometers, making it either the third or fourth largest country in the world (its rank depends on how China's size is calculated). The United States is comprised of 48 "contiguous" or "continental" states, which refers to the states located in a single connected region on the continent of North America. The US has two additional states: Alaska and Hawaii. Alaska is located in the northwestern most part of North America, but Canada separates it from the "contiguous" states. Hawaii is also separated; it is an archipelago in the Pacific Ocean.

One of the clearest lakes in the world, Lake Hovsgol has the nickname "Dark Blue Pearl of Mongolia". Mongolia's largest fresh water lake is 125 km long and plunges to over 250 m. Due to its size the water is very cold, and remains ice-covered until well into June.
