Odd One Out: Murray River, Mount Everest, Lake Eyre, Kosciuszko

Mount Everest is the clear outlier.

Why the Other Three Belong Together

  • Murray River – Australia's longest river (2,508 km), flowing through NSW, VIC, SA
  • Lake Eyre – Australia's largest endorheic basin (Kati Thanda), lowest natural point (−15 m)
  • Mount Kosciuszko – Australia's highest mainland peak (2,228 m), Snowy Mountains, NSW

All three are iconic Australian geographic features—hydrologic and topographic anchors of the continent.

Mount Everest

  • Location: Himalayas, border of Nepal and China (Tibet Autonomous Region)
  • Elevation: 8,848.86 m (29,031.7 ft) — Earth's highest point
  • Continent: Asia

Quick Mnemonic

"Three Aussie icons + one Asian giant = Everest doesn't belong."
