No. 5. MAY, 1903. VOL. XXI. FURTHER EXPLORATION IN THE CANADIAN ROCKY MOUNTAINS.* By J. NORMAN COLLIE, F.R.S. THE exploration of the main range of the Canadian Rocky mountains lying between the sources of the Athabasca river and the Kicking Horse pass has been the subject of two papers read by myself before the Royal Geographical Society. In these two papers I attempted to give a description of some of the great snowfields that exist amongst the Rocky mountains, and also as far as possible to make clear the geo- graphy of a mountain district up till that time but little known.

  • Glaciers of the Canadian Rockies
    Glaciers of North America— GLACIERS OF CANADA GLACIERS OF THE CANADIAN ROCKIES By C. SIMON L. OMMANNEY SATELLITE IMAGE ATLAS OF GLACIERS OF THE WORLD Edited by RICHARD S. WILLIAMS, Jr., and JANE G. FERRIGNO U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY PROFESSIONAL PAPER 1386–J–1 The Rocky Mountains of Canada include four distinct ranges from the U.S. border to northern British Columbia: Border, Continental, Hart, and Muskwa Ranges. They cover about 170,000 km2, are about 150 km wide, and have an estimated glacierized area of 38,613 km2. Mount Robson, at 3,954 m, is the highest peak. Glaciers range in size from ice fields, with major outlet glaciers, to glacierets. Small mountain-type glaciers in cirques, niches, and ice aprons are scattered throughout the ranges. Ice-cored moraines and rock glaciers are also common CONTENTS Page Abstract ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- J199 Introduction----------------------------------------------------------------------- 199 FIGURE 1.
