Group of Seven painter Lawren Harris created some of his most famous and best-loved paintings during a trip to the Rocky Mountains in 1924. His work captures the majesty of the mountain landscape and creates a visual record of his explorations by foot, horse, canoe, and train.

Hiker and art historian Lisa Christensen traces the steps Harris took on these trips and provides a "trail guide" approach to the works of art they inspired. She offers insight into Harris's experiences in the mountains and how they translate onto canvas in a newly austere and serene painting style. These works of art are a fascinating window into the artist's unique connection with the imposing landscape of the Rocky Mountains
