The Canadian Rockies comprise the Canadian segment of the North
American Rocky Mountains (which continues south into the United
States). The Rockies run along the Western border of Alberta,
separating the province from its neighbour British Columbia.
This photo is of the "Colin Range" of the Rocky
Mountains in Jasper National Park, Alberta. A mountain range
is a group of mountains bordered by lowlands. Mountain ranges are
usually separated from other mountain ranges by passes and rivers.
The Canadian Rockies are divided into over 30 different mountain
ranges.
Jasper National Park is the largest of Canada's Rocky Mountain Parks
and part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. Jasper spans 10,878 square
kilometres (4200 square miles) along the eastern slopes of the Rockies
in western Alberta.
