Colorado river

           The Colorado River is the principal river of the southwestern United States and northwest Mexico. The 1,450-mile (2,330 km) river drains an expansive, arid watershed that encompasses parts of seven U.S. and two Mexican states. Rising in the central Rocky Mountains in the U.S., the river flows generally southwest across the Colorado Plateau before reaching Lake Mead on the Arizona–Nevada line, where it turns south towards the international border. After entering Mexico, the Colorado forms a large delta, emptying into the Gulf of California between Baja California and Sonora. The Colorado is joined by over 25 significant tributaries, of which the Green River is the largest by both length and discharge.
          Colorado cross the following cities: Grand Junction, Moab, Page, Bullhead City, Lake Havasu City,  Yuma, San Luis Rio Colorado.
