§ 23073 Mountain Summit Definitions

Key Takeaways

  • •When a law says 'to,' 'on,' 'along,' 'with,' or 'by' a mountain or ridge, it means the very top point or the top line of that mountain or ridge.
  • •This rule helps make it clear where exactly on a mountain or ridge the law is talking about.

Example

Imagine a law says you can't build a house 'on' a mountain.

This means you can't build your house on the very top point or along the top line of the mountain. You have to build lower down on the sides.
