Canada and U.S. Rocky Mountains Travel Reference Map at Scales 1:1.3 Million and 1:1.6 Million

Description

The Rockies are North America’s recreational backyard. Extending from Alaska to Mexico, the Rockies are one of the more recent mountain chains, having been formed about 30,000 years ago by tectonic plate movement. Previously, this title concentrated only on the Canadian portion of the Rocky Mountain region; with this edition, we have extended the coverage to cover the portion between where the mountain chain first becomes prominent in Canada’s Yukon, down through Jasper and Banff National Parks, and on into Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, and Colorado. The chain extends southward through New Mexico into Mexico and Central America, but we ended coverage at Taos to show the bulk of this vast range of mountains. Inset maps of downtown Calgary, Vancouver, and Denver are included. Sorry, there simply wasn’t room for more. A lovely map!
