His photographs of nature, outdoor recreation and travel have been sold throughout the world and have been featured extensively in many international publications. From the Back Cover From 1906 to 1934 Byron Harmon photographed and filmed the mountains that have made western Canada famous. In the days before roadways, it was a full-time occupation for any explorer to venture into the region. But in addition to exploration, Harmon was fully preoccupied with photographing the mountains in their many moods and seasons. As a result Harmon's photographs shaped the public perception of Canada's Rocky Selkirk, and Purcell mountain ranges. His photographs are unforgettable.
