Red Rock Canyon, Waterton Lakes National Park, Alberta, Canada 17

Description : Glaciers and other forms of erosion have sculpted the mountains and deposited the pieces at their feet. Glacial and fluvial deposits blanket the area east of the moutains, creating Waterton,s unique Where The Mountains Meet The Prairies landscape.

There are presently no remaining glaciers in Waterton, just snowpatches. Glacier National Park has several snowfields and about 50 small glaciers, which are retreating rapidly and at current rates of recession may be gone by mid-century.
