Mountain goat (Oreamnos americanus) annual aerial helicopter survey data for the area of Lake Louise, Banff between 2002 and 2017. The objective of these surveys, initiated in 2002, has been to monitor trends in relative abundance. The aerial survey transect runs from just northwest of Lake Louise, near Ross Lake, to just south east of Taylor Lake. These surveys have been conducted annually since 2006, with two additional surveys conducted in 2002 and 2003.

Grizzly bear habitat to be incorporated into the Central Coast Land and Coastal Resource Management Plan

Mountain goats are a key species in the alpine tundra in Kluane National Park and Reserve. The potential impacts of climate change on snow depth, the frequency of rain-on-snow-events and the position of altitudinal treeline may influence goat foraging, predator dynamics and thus the survival rates of goats. Aerial survey counts of total goats (all adults and young of year) within a defined survey area on Goatherd Mountain have occurred approximately every two years since 1977. Surveys are performed in mid to late-July from a helicopter.

The Rocky Mountains Forest Reserve dataset is comprised of all the polygons that represent Rocky Mountains Forest Reserves in Alberta. The Rocky Mountains Forest Reserve is an area designated through a Legislature Act in 1948 that provides the conservation of the forests and the protection of the watersheds and rivers on the eastern slope of the Rocky Mountains.

Area delineating the Mountain Pine Beetle Salvage area

Whitebark Pine (Pinus albicaulis – listed as Endangered under the Species At Risk Act) and Limber Pine (Pinus flexilis- recommended as Endangered by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada) have undergone extensive population declines across much of their range due to a number of interacting factors. An introduced pathogen (blister rust - Cronartium ribicola) and an increasing severity of native beetle outbreaks (mountain pine beetle - Dendroctonus ponderosae) coupled with a reduced natural fire regime and changes in climate have all contributed to their decline. Seedling Survival of planted seedlings a management effectiveness measure, in part, used to assess the effectiveness of five-needle pine recovery actions in the park.

Fire maintained ecosystem restoration for the Rocky Mountain Forest District. The data was provided by MOFR/Interior Reforestation and compiled based on the various sources including VRI, BEC, TSR2 Algorithm 2003, etc.

Contained within the Atlas of Canada's Various Map Series, 1965 to 2006, is a topographic map showing the part of Yukon Territory containing the Centennial Range. The range was given its name fas part of the celebrations of Canada's Centennial in 1967. As part of this activity, there is a named mountain within the range for each province and territory. The map also shows the location of major climbing routes for this area and for the Mount Logan area (which is also on this map).
