Far Northern Rockies


The Far Northern Rockies is a mountain range that stretches from northern Montana to southern British Columbia, Canada. It is home to several notable peaks, including Mount Robson, the highest peak in the Canadian Rockies at 12,972 feet, and Mount Sir Alexander, the highest peak in the Cariboo Mountains at 10,781 feet. The range is also known for its significant hydrology, including the headwaters of the Columbia River, Fraser River, and the Snake River. The Flathead River, which runs through the range, is designated as a Wild and Scenic River. The Far Northern Rockies have a rich history, with evidence of human habitation dating back over 10,000 years. The range was also a major mining area during the late 1800s and early 1900s. Interesting facts about the Far Northern Rockies include the presence of grizzly bears, bighorn sheep, and mountain goats, as well as the fact that the area is home to some of the oldest rock formations in North America.
