Mighty Mountains Torn Down by Erosion Across Ages
The article argues mountains are young, shaped by erosion from wind, water, and frost. It cites Alps decline of 10,000–12,000 feet per million years, central Asia and western America enduring longer, and Mount Saint Elias showing little erosion. It contrasts youthful rugged peaks with older, worn landscapes and notes volcanic cones like Vesuvius Etna Shasta and Fuji as tall structures built by lava and ash.
