Major Sections of the Rocky Mountains

The Rocky Mountains are a major mountain range spanning from northern New Mexico in the southwestern United States to northern British Columbia, Canada.

While they subdivide into many smaller ranges and can vary by source, at a high level they can be divided into seven large sections: Far Northern Rockies, Canadian Rockies, Central Montana Rocky Mountains, Idaho-Bitterroot Rocky Mountains, Greater Yellowstone Rockies, Western Rocky Mountains, and Southern Rocky Mountains.
