With the help of an instrument called barometer, you can tell approximately the height of a mountain, but you must climb to the top of the mountain to use such instrument. The higher is the mountain, there is less on the top of it, so the air pressure is fewer over there.

High mountain ranges have short summers due to their high elevation, which results in colder temperatures.
