It usually snows so much on Mount Washington because the mountain is tall and the temperatures on the peak are very cold.
The Himalayan Mountains are the highest mountains in the world. They are covered in snow all year from the altitude. The higher the point, the colder it gets. So, the Himalayan Mountains are so tall that the caps are snow capped all year.
Well at this very moment they say it has About 699 cm OS snow. 22 feet, and is calling for ALOT more, so my guess is they can get alot of snow. :) But the snow they have now, i heard is a record of most snow in a log time.
No, Mount Fuji does not always have snow. Snow can typically be found at the higher elevations of the mountain during the colder months, but it may not be present year-round. Snowfall on Mount Fuji depends on the season and weather conditions.
Mount Kilimanjaro is snow-capped year-round due to its high elevation, which reaches over 19,000 feet. The high altitude creates a cold climate at the summit despite its location near the equator. Additionally, the mountain's glaciers receive moisture from the surrounding clouds, allowing them to persist even in the warmer months.
No, snow leopards are not found on Mount Kilimanjaro. Snow leopards are native to the high mountain ranges of Central and South Asia, not Africa. Kilimanjaro, located in Tanzania, is known for its diverse ecosystem and wildlife, but snow leopards are not part of this ecosystem.
Mount Washington is not a volcano, so it does not erupt.

The snow that is on Mount Everest has fallen from the sky.

because George Washington's lived there.

Mount Everest, particularly the upper portion of it, is at a high elevation and therefore is very cold. It is never warm enough there to melt water, so any precipitation will fall in the form of snow.
No, Mount Fuji does not always have snow. Snow can typically be found at the higher elevations of the mountain during the colder months, but it may not be present year-round. Snowfall on Mount Fuji depends on the season and weather conditions.
its so windy because its so close to the first layer atmosphere
Yes. And the permanent snow fields are sometimes called glaciers. The altitude is high enough -- making the temperature permanently below freezing -- so that whatever moisture is in the air falls or collects as snow or ice crystals.
Many of the taller composite volcanoes and those located in cooler climates are snow-capped. However, others are not so tall and located in tropical regions and so do not have snow caps. On example is Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines.
