The view of the mountains in Kananaskis Country in Alberta is simply breathtaking with snow tops and streaks down the mountains. During the 1998 Winter Olympics in Calgary the world’s attention was directed to the area due to the press coverage of Olympic events. Perhaps the majestic Rocky Mountains that rise up and loom over the city of Calgary made people want to visit this unbelievable area as well. The snow peaked mountains in Kananaskis Country provide a special view and one will stare in awe at the large mountains that provide great mountain biking and skiing as well as other activities all year long.
