Mountain-building is a result of continental collision, so destructive plate boundaries. One plate is destroyed by subduction below the other, which undergoes compression, buckling and uplift as the collision continues. This is happening at present in Asia, raising the Himalayan Mountains.
convergent boundary: two continental plates collide, forming a mountain range.

The type of boundary that causes shearing is transform boundary.
The type of boundary that the Andes mountains are, in South America, is a convergent plate boundary. This was formed from the collision of the South American plate boundary and the Nazca plate.

Mountains form at convergent plate boundaries.
The Cascades are associated with a subduction zone, a type of convergent boundary.
