There is a nice quote by Robert M. Pirsig: "The only Zen you find on tops of mountains is the Zen you bring there."

This translates well to psychedelic drug use.

I think the mountain does help with Zen. How much, depends on the individual.

But yes, I do feel (in my limited experience) that for most people the thoughts they carry are more important to work on, than the environment they are in.
