The two continents have a number of features in common, the largest and most obvious being the spine of mountains which run down both continents, the Rockies in North America and the Andes in South America. Both continents have extensive deserts, especially down the western coast. Also common to both continents are areas of tropical rainforest (from Mexico to Panama in North America and covering a large portion of South America), grassland (The Pampas and the Prairies) and temperate rainforest (from Northern California to Alaska in North America and the west coast of Chile in South America).
