Alberta Scenery Photo Tour

Photo: Colin Range of the Rocky Mountains 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. Rocky Mountains information and coloring page
