Have fun in the mob grinder.
I'll just build my own... I'm not searching for an extreme hills biome for nothing!
Thanks for the offer though

I went searching for an extreme hills biome this morning because I have some pretty neat ideas for my house. So in my quest for the perfect mountain, no PERFECT mountain was found, but a mountain that will suit my long-term needs has been found. So here are a few screenshots from my epic journey:
I have come across this absolutely stunning cliffy extreme hills biome when searching:
Another shot with another cliff in the background:
I went searching more, because I didn't like the aforementioned place's surroundings: I want a place with an easy access to a desert so I can make a lot of glass, and easy access to a forest so I can make a lot of charcoal.
So I found this awesome place:
Looking at another angle, right from the edge of my mountain:
The taiga forest right behind it:
I went searching some more to see if I could find a better place. In the meantime it started snowing and I found 12(!!!) wild pumpkins! YAY!
Then I took a journey along the boundary between the desert and the taiga, and came back to the village from which I saw my proposed snowy place. It's half-ruined, but I managed to find a random place with a bed in it so I took a nap:
Here's a view of the half-ruined village. It's really ugly and it's also vacant so I'm considering destroying it. May I?
I ended up settling for the snowy cliff. It's awesome, and I can do everything I have in mind with it, given enough time and resources.
Some info about it:
-It has a plain right below it, which is perfect for the park I'm planning to build. That park will be the place to be when I'll start operating my random fireworks
-It has a vast taiga forest behind it, which is good for gathering my resources for when I need lots of them. Only problem would be getting down to the forest every time, so I might build a minecart railway for that
-As mentioned, it has an ugly village in front of it
I have a plan in mind for the castle I'm going to build there, so stay tuned!
