The Rocky Mountains, colloquially known as the "Rockies", stretch the entire height of North America from New Mexico to Alaska and are the continent's most formidable mountain range, with mountains over 4000 metres high. They are home to major nature reserves such as Yellowstone and Yosemite National Parks. These captivate tourists from all countries who love the solitude of the majestic mountains. The unparalleled fauna and flora make the nature-loving amateur painter dream.
