Answer:

Leeward Mountain Slopes Encourage Warm, Dry Climates

In contrast to the windward side of a mountain which is moist, the leeward side typically has a dry, warm climate. This is because by the time air rises up the windward side and reaches the summit, it has already stripped of the majority of its moisture.

Why are the Inca roads considered an amazing achievement?
Mama L [17]
The best example is their amazing system of roads. The Incas built roads across the length and width of their empire. To create routes through steep mountain ranges, they carved staircases and gouged tunnels out of rock. They also built suspension bridges over rivers.
