Colorado

Colorado's topography is characterized by a diverse range of elevations and landforms, making it one of the most geologically varied states in the U.S. The state is dominated by the Rocky Mountains, which run north to south and include the highest peak in the contiguous United States, Mount Elbert, towering at 14,440 feet (4,401 meters). This mountainous region features dramatic peaks, deep valleys, and extensive alpine forests. In contrast, the eastern plains consist of rolling hills and flatlands that gently rise towards the foothills of the Rockies. The terrain is punctuated by rivers, lakes, and canyons, with significant geological formations such as the Flatirons and the iconic Pikes Peak. Colorado's elevation varies significantly, ranging from around 3,315 feet (1,010 meters) at the Arikaree River to over 14,000 feet (4,267 meters) in the mountains, contributing to its unique ecosystems and recreational opportunities.
