The US and Canada share the Rocky Mountains along the western coast.
The main mountain ranges in the western United States include the Rocky Mountains, Sierra Nevada, Cascade Range, and the Coast Range. These mountain ranges stretch from Canada down to Mexico along the western coast of the United States.
Western Canada has experienced more mountain-building than eastern Canada due to tectonic plate movement. The collision of the Pacific Plate with the North American Plate along the western coast has led to the creation of the Rocky Mountains and Coast Mountains. In contrast, eastern Canada has been relatively stable geologically, resulting in fewer mountain-building events.
Some major mountain ranges in India include the Himalayas in the north, the Western Ghats along the western coast, and the Eastern Ghats along the eastern coast. The Aravalli Range in northwestern India is also significant.
