Ah, what a lovely question! The line you're thinking of is called the "snow line" or "snow line altitude." It's where the snow cover begins to be permanent, creating a beautiful boundary between the alpine tundra and the snowy peaks. Just imagine the happy little plants and animals that call each side of the snow line their home, creating a harmonious balance in nature.
