Why are the algae that live on snow able to survive high in the Mountains in early summer?

the higher you go the cooler the atmosphere

so they basically going to survive until global warming becomes worst but enough of that mount everest peak is always cold

The spores usually have thick walls and large amounts of lipid reserves, polyols and sugars. These spores are able to withstand sub-zero temperatures in winter and also high soil temperatures and desiccation in summer which would kill normal vegetative cells.
