Ores, goats and powder snow at altitude

Mountain stone shows its ore above ground, so you can mine without digging deep. Copper and coal are common, and emerald ore generates only in mountain biomes, so these peaks are one of the few places to find it without trading.

• Goats: they charge at you, and if they hit a hard block they drop a goat horn.
• Powder snow: it swallows you unless you wear leather boots, and it freezes you slowly.
• Emeralds: look for green dots in exposed stone, especially on the slopes.

Bring a bucket of water. Placing it just before landing negates fall damage, and you can pick it up again.

A pickaxe with Efficiency helps, since the rock is deep and dense.

Climbing, camping and building on a peak

Slopes can be steep. Build stair paths instead of climbing straight up, and place torches every few blocks to stop night spawns. Scaffolding is a fast, safe way to reach a ledge.

A cliff-side home gives you a long view and keeps zombies from surprising you. Carve a room in the rock, add a window and a balcony, and keep a bed inside. Snow and ice build up, so check for powder snow patches before you step.

• Use ladders or vines for quick climbs.
• Craft a boat for frozen lakes in the valleys.
• Keep a stack of blocks for bridging gaps.

The summit makes a fine spot for an observatory or a tall beacon.
