Geography
Colorado's landscapes vary greatly. The western portion of the state is home to high mesas and cliffs, lush valleys and whitewater rivers that cut through sandstone canyons and stratified rock walls.
Moving east, the Rocky Mountains are made up of seven distinct mountain ranges and many of the country's highest peaks. The Continental Divide runs along the crests of the ranges, and the headwaters of four major rivers are found here.
Farther eastward, nestled where the mountains gently slope down and transition to the eastern plains, the Front Range is home to Denver and many of the state’s most populous cities.
The easternmost portion of Colorado is quite flat. As part of the nation's Great Plains, the area is known primarily for its grassland, lakes and reservoirs, and farmland.
