1) No, simply my ignorance of its location or current status does not negate its existence
1A) No, for the same reason. My perspective of its disappearance is not relevent to its existence
2) Yes, if it is indeed "knowable" that the mountain is completely destroyed. And even if it does still exist it is no long in the form of a mountain.
2A) Yes, again for the same reasons as 2.
One a side note for my answers on 2, however it could be argued that, similar to my answers to 1 and 1A, that all I can ever know is my own perspective which in no way relates to the actual existence or destruction of a foreign object.
