The North American Cordillera is a vast mountain range system that extends along the west coast of North America, from Alaska in the north to Mexico in the south. It includes the Rocky Mountains, Sierra Nevada, and Cascade Range, among other major mountain ranges. The Cordillera is geologically diverse and is home to a variety of ecosystems and wildlife.

The Rocky Mountains and the Andes are connected by the volcanic range known as the North American Cordillera.
The North American Cordillera mountains were formed through a complex process of plate tectonics involving the subduction of the Pacific Plate beneath the North American Plate. This led to the uplifting and folding of the Earth's crust, forming the mountain ranges we see today, such as the Rockies, Sierra Nevada, and Coast Ranges. Volcanic activity also played a role in shaping these mountains.
Major cities in the Montane Cordillera include Vancouver and Calgary in Canada, and Seattle in the United States. These cities are located in the mountainous region of the western North American continent and are known for their scenic beauty and outdoor recreational opportunities.
The two main mountain ranges of the Cordillera are the Western Cordillera and the Eastern Cordillera. They run parallel to each other along the western and eastern edges of North and South America.
