Priority: 1/2 (relevant to perhaps half or more of the verse's characters)
Verse: Lord of the Rings/The Silmarillion
Feat: Gandalf and Durin's Bane create a storm that crowns a mountain. The relevant scale and descriptions are in this Imgur Link. There is a second feat where Durin's Bane destroys the mountain-side as it dies.
Edit: Letter 302 also compares the mountain to the Silvertine in Switzerland.
"I left the view of Jungfrau with deep regret: eternal snow, etched as
it seemed against eternal sunshine, and the Silberhorn sharp against dark blue: the Silvertine
(Celebdil) of my dreams."
