Maybe so. Climate might also have something to do with it. Here's a fall picture of Mount Monadnock (NH) at just 3100ft which also pokes above the treeline. You can see a garland of evergreen below the bald top which is mostly spruce but also long needle pine lower down with a lot of deciduous mixed in.
