Tutorials/Conquering a mountain

Mountains are one of the six uncommon cold/temperate biomes with huge and tall terrain. Conquering a mountain can be quite a challenge, especially for unprepared players, due to the several dangers (e.g. getting stuck and freezing in Powder snow, goats that can ram you off a cliff from a fatal height, etc...). However, not all mountains are generated equally as it can sometimes just be a big meadow hill or a short mountain peak. There's no real reason to "conquer" a mountain other than for the challenge/fun.
