So far from home, he was. Not that he really minded -- he was bit of a traveling merchant in a sense. He was used to traveling far from home. But why was he in the mountains rather than the actual village? Simple enough reason. While he was indeed a traveling merchant, he was self-trained as a ninja to a certain extent. While he was proud of his heritage of being a ninja, Lee rather kept it secret from those he did not trust. He was descended from of the Nara clan, a prominent clan from Konoha.
The reason why he was out in these mountains today was simple; he wanted to practice in privacy. He needed to sharpen his skills with his shadow techniques; he often used them to protect his wares while on the road. When used in combination with his skills in swordsmanship, he was often able to deal with bandits before they were able to figure out his skills.
The best place to practice was in the shadow of the mountain, at daybreak. It was early enough that he didnt have to worry about many people stumbling across him, and the light was perfect to allow him to practice strategicly linking his shadow in order to conserve chakra in the heat of battle.
He was calmly sitting just off the path in the lotus position, watching his shadow flicker back and forth in front of his body. Occasionally he would reposition a rock, attempting to practice fine control of his shadow.
