Way my Dad told me, "The difference between a hill and a mountain is, with hills you go up and down, up and down, up and down. With mountains you go up and up and up and up, then down and down and down and down. :)

I've never really heard a better diffinition.

At the top of a hill, you take a quick drink of water before continuing on your journey ... at the top of a mountain, you sit yourself down on the nearest rock, catch your breath, drink your water, and wish you were in better shape ....

Wow. There must be a ton of mountains out there then. :) I'm really in horrible shape right now.

It's a semantic problem. In New Jersey, we don't have anything over 2300'. So, anything that's steep, we call a mountain. In New Hampshire, or Colorado. they'd call them hills. So, chalk it up to regional dialect.
