Mountains is the eighth studio album by American country music group Lonestar. It was the band's last album for BNA Records, it produced two singles on the Hot Country Songs charts: "Mountains" at No. 10 and "Nothing to Prove" at No. 51. After the single released, the band was dropped from BNA. This was also the last studio album from Lonestar to feature Richie McDonald, who quit the band in 2007 to pursue a solo career, before rejoining in 2011.
Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic gave the album two-and-a-half stars out of five, saying that "the group takes fewer risks than ever" on it.
