Experience
the natural beauty of the Canadian
Rocky Mountains.
The
Canadian Rocky Mountains are a vast
land - filled with inspiring scenery,
wildlife and
a multitude of recreational opportunities
for all ages.
They
are located in Western North America
and are known for their beautiful
scenery with mountains, trees and
big game. People visit the Rockies
for many recreational activities
like hiking, hunting, camping, golfing,
skiing and lots of other sports.
Some
adaptions that animals have made to
the climate is that the hoofed species
are very surefooted for the mountainous
terrain they live on. Many animals
migrate to lower and warmer elevations
during the winter months. Some animals
shed their brown fur to replace it
with white so that they blend in with
the snow. Some hibernate and some
even have big feet so that they can
walk on snow.
The Rocky Mountains
are rich in environmental treasures.
Conservation and protection is important
to make sure the Rockies are just
as wonderful as they are today for
many generations.
The Canadian Rocky
Mountains are also home to vast
glaciers rimmed with ice, deep forests,
and emerald green lakes - some of
the most majestic mountain scenery
on earth.
