ok, technically some are mountains (peaks have to be 2000 feet to be a mountain- i learned that in poteau, ok). but let's be honest here, these aren't- as pretty as that area is- mountains

maybe, but dictionary definition:
mountain
noun
1.
a natural elevation of the earth's surface rising more or less abruptly to a summit, and attaining an altitude greater than that of a hill, usually greater than 2000 feet (610 meters).
