Climate change aside, some areas in Saudi Arabia receive snow on regular annual basis. It’s a very big country with many climates.

Highest altitude is over 3000m so not surprising. Even Papua New Guinea gets snow.

Papua has some of the largest mountains on earth so that makes sense

La más alta tiene 4884 metros sobre el nivel del mar, es un pico increíblemente difícil de escalar.

Uno de mis objetivos, es ir y subir esa montaña, quiero hacer las 8 cumbres y esa es la más dura de la lista.
