Just before Judas' betrayal and nearing the time of His crucifixion, Jesus travelled to the Garden of Gethsemane on the Mount of Olives with His disciples so that He could pray. Before He went to pray, Jesus told the disciples to watch with Him as He prayed. But while Jesus was praying, His disciples fell asleep. Three separate times, Jesus came back during His time of prayer to find the disciples asleep. The following verses from the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke include what Jesus said to them after He found them asleep: Luke 22:46 "And said unto them, 'Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.'" Matthew 26:40-41 "And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, 'What, could ye not watch with me one hour? Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.'" Mark 14:37-38 "And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, 'Simon, sleepest thou? couldest not thou watch one hour? Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak.'" Mark 14:41-42 "And he cometh the third time, and saith unto them, 'Sleep on now, and take your rest: it is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. Rise up, let us go; lo, he that betrayeth me is at hand.'" Matthew 26:45-46 "Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, 'Sleep on now, and take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me.'" The entire account is found in Matthew 26:36-45, Mark 14:32-41, and Luke 22:39-46.

When Jesus took his disciples to a high mountain, Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you wish, I will put up three sheltersโ€”one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah." This event is known as the Transfiguration.

Apart from Peter [!], not much at all:-

The Transfiguration

Mark chapter 9 v.2-6

2 Six days later Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John and led them alone up a high mountain privately. And he was transfigured before them,

3 and his clothes became radiantly white, more so than any launderer in the world could bleach them.

4 Then Elijah appeared before them along with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

5 So Peter said to Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three shelters --- one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

6 (For they were afraid, and he did not know what to say.)

Matthew 17: The Transfiguration

1 Six days later Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John the brother of James, and led them privately up a high mountain.

2 And he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became white as light.

3 Then Moses and Elijah also appeared before them, talking with him.

4 So Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you want, I will make three shelters --- one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

5 While he was still speaking, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, "This is my one dear Son, in whom I take great delight. Listen to him!"

6 When the disciples heard this, they were overwhelmed with fear and threw themselves down with their faces to the ground.

Why did Jesus go on the mountain?

Jesus went to the mountain to pray as the scripture says:And when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to pray.(Mark 6.46)Four of these times are recorded in the Gospels.Answer:He would go to a mountain to escape the crowds of people that followed Him; both for solitude and prayer... and so that He could be alone with His disciples. They would follow Him up... but there was no room to support the multitudes."And seeing the multitudes, He went up into a mountain: and when He was set, His disciples came unto Him: and He opened His mouth, and taught them..." (Matt.5:1-2).And sometimes, when no mountain was near, He just sent the people away and took His disciples into His house: "Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and His disciples came unto Him..." (Matt.13:36).

Did witnessing Jesus' transfiguration change Peter's view on suffering?

Jesus took Peter, James and John up into a high mountain, where his appearance changed, and they saw him talking to two men. Somehow, the disciples knew without question that these strangers were Moses and Elijah. Read literally, the sole reason for this journey was to let the three disciples see Jesus talking to Moses and Elijah. Yet they learnt nothing from the experience and were even instructed to tell no one - it was as if the transfiguartion never happened. In spite of this life-changing event, and presumably its absolute proof that Jesus was the Messiah, Peter learnt nothing and even went on to deny Jesus.
