mountain top
Climber's final destination
The highest point or summit of a mountain.
Often written as one word: mountaintop.
The term appears frequently in figurative contexts suggesting achievement, perspective, or spiritual experience: a mountaintop moment, from the mountaintop I could see the whole valley.
Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I've been to the mountaintop" speech gave the phrase additional resonance in American culture.
