PRINT SHOWS: The Colorado River is a river in the southwestern United States, approximately 1,450 mi (2,333 km) long, draining a part the arid regions on the western slope of the Rocky Mountains. The natural course of the river flows into the Gulf of California in northwestern Mexico, but the heavy use of the river as a fresh water source has desiccated the lower course of the river in Mexico such that it no longer reaches the sea.
Its headwaters are in Colorado inside Rocky Mountain National Park. The Green River cuts its way through the Uinta Mountains of Wyoming; then flowing intermittently in the open, it crosses successive uplifts in a series of deep gorges, and flows through Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area and on to its junction with the Colorado River.
