Wide angled lens for mountains?

You can probably make do with what you have.

14mm may not always be wide enough but then you turn the camera in portrait orientation and shoot a panorama. In the mountains that should not be a problem.

If you do want a wider lens plus travel light the Oly 9-18 adds hardly any bulk and weight to your setup. It's a pretty good (but not pro quality) lens.

In the mountains light is likely to be available in abundance so there should be enough light to get away with an f/3.5-5.6 zoom lens.
