I'm A Mountain is an album by Canadian singer-songwriter Sarah Harmer, released in 2005.

Unlike her two previous albums, You Were Here and All of Our Names, I'm a Mountain is an acoustic folk and bluegrass album, for the most part. The instrumentation on the album consists mainly of acoustic guitars, double basses, fiddles, mandolins, and percussion.

Two songs on the album, "Oleander" and "Goin' Out", feature Harmer's father Clem on backing vocals.

The album was shortlisted for the inaugural Polaris Music Prize in 2006.
