[I have a specific reason for posting these pictures now of the photogenic Mount Assiniboine in Mount Assiniboine Provincial Park, Alberta (adjacent to Banff and Kootenay National Parks). Anybody astute enough to guess what the reason is?]

Spectacular!
I've tried in vain to locate an ore map of the world, or even the United States. Do you know where I might find such documentation?

wow....been a long time...I hiked/climbed with preset assists to the top 32 years ago almost to the date with two other Mississippi hippies..summer...winter would be a serious challenge
beautiful country....really...and the gals in Calgary at the nightclub at the Crowfoot Inn....oh yeah...local guys were big cowboys and hated long haired interlopers who talked funny
Elvis died while we were there I remember getting in the car and hearing it one morning
had to check our sidearms at the border...Hippies had guns then...a different era kids...just look at that famous pic of the Dead on Haight street with guns...
oh well

Very beautiful scenery. I spent 10 days in Banff and it is gorgeous. The mountains are magnificent. I was there in October and there was lots of snow! No doubt caused by global warming. lol...
