  3. Rocky: Mountains have lots of rocks on them.
  4. Snowy: The top of some mountains is covered in snow.
  5. Green: Many mountains have trees and grass that look green.
  6. Steep: Some mountains go up very quickly, so they are hard to climb.
  7. High: Mountains sit higher than the land around them.
  8. Big: Mountains are much bigger than houses or trees.
  9. Quiet: Mountains can be peaceful and quiet places.
  10. Cold: The top of a mountain can feel cold, even when it is warm below.

Quick activity:
