If it were to go beyond the atmosphere there would be no snow, but no mountain on Earth will ever get close to that tall.
A snow capped mountain is a mountain with snow on the top if it.
a snow mountain top
Hawaii has tall mountains
rock and or snow
The reason that the top of a tall mountain in a temperate (not temperature) forest resembles a tundra of taiga because of the extreme cold, snow, ice and lack of biodiversity above the treeline that can be found there.
No, to have snow on top (permanently) the height of the mountain must exceed that of the snow line for the particular latitude at which the mountain is located (the snow line is higher at the equator than it is at the poles). Mountains that do not reach this height are not permanently snow capped (they may have snow on in winter months).
Because it is by the equator which makes the reigion of Kenya too hot for it to snow. Actually it CAN snow in Kenya and does around Mount Kenya, an extinct volcano 5,199 metres (17,057 ft) tall. The mountain has snow on its summit and seven glaciers
Alpine at the top of the snow line
There are various names, but possibly most common is the 'peak'
a mountain is just dirt and rocks until you pile it 10,000 ft. tall - and call it majestic !!
The biome most likely to be found on the top of a very tall tropical mountain is the TUNDRA
At the summit of a mountain, you might find rocks, snow, glaciers, vegetation, and possibly a marker denoting the peak. Wildlife like mountain goats or birds may also be spotted at the mountain's peak.
