Yes. Mountains get snow because at higher elevations most of the precipitation is falling in below-freezing temperatures. Mountains create precipitation as moist air is forced up their slopes into the colder temperatures at higher altitude, where the air cannot hold as much water vapor.

Are mountains really trees, or is there a fundamental difference between the two in terms of their composition and formation?

Mountains are not trees. Mountains are large landforms that are created through geological processes such as tectonic plate movement and volcanic activity. Trees, on the other hand, are living organisms that grow from the ground and are made up of cells, tissues, and organs. The fundamental difference between mountains and trees lies in their composition and formation.
