The Colorado high country is the great pinnacle of the Rocky Mountain Range, the geographic spine of North America that stretches from Alaska to Mexico. Colorado encompasses three-fourths of the land area of the United States with an elevation over 10,000 feet, and includes fifty-three peaks over 14,000 feet. Author and photographer Susan Neider has assembled a visually beautiful and richly informative guide to the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. Family vacationers, RVers, backpackers, and anyone who loves wild places will find in this book an indispensable trip planner and an extraordinary vision of the Centennial State.
