# --description--
Set the stack level of the mountain element such that it remains directly behind the `.ground` element.
# --hints--
You should use the `z-index` property to change the stack level.
```js
assert.notEmpty(new __helpers.CSSHelp(document).getStyle('.left-mountain')?.zIndex);
```
You should set the `z-index` property to `2`.
```js
assert.equal(new __helpers.CSSHelp(document).getStyle('.left-mountain')?.zIndex, '2');
```
You should not change the `z-index` of the `.ground` element.
```js
assert.equal(new __helpers.CSSHelp(document).getStyle('.ground')?.zIndex, '3');
```
