Is gravity weaker on top of a mountain?

Even though you're still on the ground, you're higher up, so is it weaker?
gpt
Yes, but not as much as the 1/r^2 dependence of g would suggest. Since you're standing on more rocks than at the bottom of the mountain you would have more mass under you. This actually leads to gravity being stronger above mountains at equal orbiting altitudes (depending on density of the rocks below).
