Nestled in the Bow Valley lies the town of Canmore, one of the largest towns of Alberta, Canada. Like most towns in the region, Canmore can trace its origins of settlement to the forming of a coal mine, and it is the prosperity brought in by the coal mining industry that led to a spurt in the settlement's population growth, eventually leading to the incorporation of the town in 1965. Today, the town of Canmore is a popular getaway for city dwellers, mainly those in Banff and Calgary, offering scenic views of the 'Three Sisters', a trio of mountain peaks.
