The boiling temperature of water is dependent on the surrounding pressure. And air pressure decreases as you get higher up. As pressure decreases, so does the boiling point. This means that the water will start to boil faster on the mountain, but it will boil at a lower temperature. At a lower temperature, food takes longer to cook.
