How is the weathering of a bare mountain peak different from the weathering of bedrock under a forest soil?

A bare mountain peak may be exposed to freeze/ thaw cycles, harsh sunlight, surface erosion by wind blown and water carried particles, and chemical weathering from acid rain. Bedrock under soil is not exposed to most weathering forces.

Why is it possible to pass through several biomes as you drive up a mountain?
Because, elevation affects both temperature and precipitation, the type of biome found at a higher elevation can be different from one at a lower elevation. For Example: Temperate forest, Boreal forest, Tundra, and Permanent ice. (forest by mountain, higher up the mountain, go higher and you reach at tundra, top of mountain is cold and precipitation is very different, so it's permanent ice) Hope this answers your question :)
