    The geometry on a slope of a mountain is the geometry of a Finsler metric, called here the {\it slope metric}. We study the existence of globally defined slope metrics on surfaces of revolution as well as the geodesic's behavior. A comparison between Finslerian and Riemannian areas of a bounded region is also studied
