Mountains

What is the highest one you ever encountered?  I just found one with 108 Z-levels and a 5 z-level flat cliffface at the bottom, but also includes a 15 z-level cliff above the magma pipe.

How do you get mountains with heights exceeding 50 z levels? At most I've seen ones with heights of maybe 30 z levels. Those are probably the low mountains though.

I suppose you go into the world gen thingamajigg and turn everything to "what the hell are you doing i can't generate this world it's like 400 z levels on each map" and they just say "do it anyway!"

I used the dwarf heaven seed, and just looked around for a nice site with a volcano. As a bonus it features skeletal hoary marmots and skeletal fire imps. The world has got loads of normal sites but an abnormally high amount of volcano's
