Mackenzie Mountains

The Mackenzie Mountains are a rugged mountain range located in northwestern Canada, primarily in the Yukon and Northwest Territories. They stretch over 1,300 kilometers (about 800 miles) and are known for their stunning landscapes, including steep peaks, deep valleys, and diverse ecosystems. This region is largely remote and sparsely populated, making it a haven for wildlife and outdoor enthusiasts. The mountains are also significant for Indigenous peoples, who have lived in the area for thousands of years, and they play a role in the local culture and history. The Mackenzie Mountains embody Canada’s natural beauty and geological diversity.
