Mountain Day and International Mountain Day celebration with Mountain Songs
International Mountain Day is celebrated annually on December 11th. The day marks the education in sustainable mountain development. Mountain Day, on the other hand, is typically celebrated in the Northeast by college students who take a day and go climb a mountain. Colleges recognize the day and no classes are held.
Being a music topical website, we are not talking about the musical group Mountain with a song like “Mississippi Queen”, or even Big Mountain with the song “Baby, I Love Your Way”. Rather we are talking about is a gigantic land mass that stretches many acres and usually comes to a peak. Keep in mind that we are also not talking about a big hill, commonly known as a Butte. Enjoy our list of mountain songs. Each song has the word mountain in the song title!
