The Rockies and Columbia Mountains <\/p>\n
The towering peaks of the Canadian Rockies and Columbia Mountains rival the
\nEuropean Alps in fame. When travelling or climbing, hiking or skiing in these
\nareas, have you ever wondered where the names of the peaks, rivers and lakes
\ncame from, or who named them and why? In Canadian Mountain Place Names, the
\nauthors have used their scope of knowledge and expertise, along with many
\noutside sources, to compile an entertaining and informative treatise on the
\ntoponymy of this increasingly popular alpine region. <\/p>\n
Originally published as Place Names of the Canadian Alps, this new edition is
\ncompletely revised and updated. Illustrated with Glen Boles‘ and Roger
\nLaurilla’s stunning photographs, as well as Boles‘ intricate line drawings,
\nthis book is a must-have not only for avid mountaineers, skiers and hikers,
\nbut also for locals and visitors with an interest in these regions. For the
\nauthors, this book has been a labour of love: for the mountains, as well as
\nfor all those who care about the mountains and are curious about the names
\nbestowed on the geographic features surrounding them. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
