Mountains is the seventh 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 to feature Richie McDonald before leaving for a solo career, until he rejoined 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.[2]
