A member asked:
Would you get more bitamin d on mountain peak?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: Vitamin d is formed by the action of uv sunlight on the precursor in the skin. The intensity of that light is greater at higher elevations however most mountain tops are rather chilly and you would probably be wearing warm clothing which would shield your skin from the light.
