Canadian Rockies
The Canadian Rockies comprise the
Canadian
segment of the
North American
Rocky Mountains
range
. The southern end in
Alberta
and
British Columbia
borders
Idaho
and
Montana
of the
USA
. The northern end is at the Liard Plain in
British Columbia
. Contrary to popular misconception, the Rockies do not extend into the
Yukon
or
Alaska
, or into central British Columbia. North of the
Liard River
, the
Mackenzie Mountains
, which are not part of the Rockies, form a portion of the border between the Yukon and the
Northwest Territories
. The mountain ranges to the west of the
Rocky Mountain Trench
in southern British Columbia are called the
Columbia Mountains
and are not considered to be part of the Rockies.
