PLEASE HELP ASAP! Describe The Rocky Mountains. I will mark brainliest.

I would try to describe but I may go ahead a little bit

Explanation:

The Rocky Mountains are often defined as stretching from the Liard River in British Columbia south to the headwaters of the Rio grande in New Mexico.The Rockies vary in width from 110 to 480 Km, the Rocky Mountains contain the highest peaks in central north America.

The Rocky Mountains formed 80 million to 55 million years ago, during the Larami de orogeny ,in which a number of plates began sliding underneath the north American plate.the angle of subduction was shallow resulting in a broad belt if mountain running down western north America

heat from the core of the earth causes convection currents to occur in the mantle. these currents slowly move the crust around.
