The Purcell Mountains, Canada
These spectacular mountains, which lie between the Rocky Mountains and Glacier National Park, contain some of North America’s most rugged and dramatic mountain landscapes.
There are over 1,200 hectares of rolling alpine meadows, fields of vibrant wildflowers swaying in the breeze and countless peaks and ridges rising to touch the sky.
Wildlife of the Purcell Mountains
Against the backdrop of tumbling glaciers and alpine vistas the fauna is intoxicating in its variety: eagles, grizzly bears, humming birds, deer and elk are all frequently seen.
