- Abstract
- Pertains to the geological information and processes that have occurred in order to yield the Canadian Rocky Mountains. In an effort to attract and inform visitors, author and scientist, David M. Baird, has opted to share the geological forces that have created the mountains we know today. Baird takes the reader through a comprehensive analysis of the forces needed to create the beauty of the terrain. He does so with the hopes of facilitating a much deeper appreciation for both the beauty, and natural processes needed to yield a mountain range as extensive as the Canadian Rockies.
