North Mountains

**North Mountains** is a biome in the «Game of Thrones» mod for Minecraft.

## Climate

In this biome there is a high-altitude zone. The main reason for the differences between the climate of the mountains and the climate of the plains is an increase in altitude and a decrease in temperature at altitude. There is eternal winter, snow and blizzards on the peaks of the mountains. Nevertheless, the frost here is not as severe as in the far north, and you can die of cold only in the calendar winter; the rest of the time negative temperatures are insignificant. Snowstorms are very common at the foot of the mountains in winter, the grass is covered with snow. The sky is covered with dense clouds. Even the water looks cold. If you go outside undressed and stand away from the heat and light, you can freeze to death. In the spring, the situation improves, the snow melts, the rains become more frequent. The grass becomes taiga-colored, it's cold outside, but it won't be possible to freeze to death. Summer is no different from spring, so don't expect to wait for hot days. In autumn, the grass begins to die off and turns brown. The weather remains the same.
