The boiling temperature of a liquid is when its vapour pressure equates to the atmospheric pressure above it. Therefore on a mountain top (or even on board a plane that reduces cabin pressure to below ground pressure), which has a reduced atmospheric pressure, the water boils at a lower temperature
