I figure living on a black basalt mountain in the middle of a desert is good, as the zombies would be jerky long before they got near. Black basalt can get to 200F and higher.

As long as they don't climb up to you at night.

Much of a muchness. Black basalt gives off heat all night long and is nowhere near cool by dawn. And this is after the zombies had hiked across a waterless desert.

Years ago, when the government was contemplating very long term storage of high grade nuclear waste, perhaps 500 or a thousand years in the future, they seriously considered covering the site with a mountain of black basalt boulders. Only very slowly eroding, it would make treasure hunting on the site extremely hard.
