Simply stretching the photo's upper third in the vertical direction in Photoshop or similar?

No, because then all dimensions would be equally scaled, i.e. the mountain wouldn't be just taller, but also wider, which it clearly isn't when compared to that other photo.

Edit: here's a quick "unstretched" version I made. Compare that to OP's photo and /u/Paulsar's image.
