KM#(D): KM#(S):
Colorado is a state in the west of the United States, it is known for having the highest peaks of the Rocky Mountains, an average of more than 3000m in height that dominate the western part of the state, since the eastern part consists of large plains, the highest in the world, in which there are more than 200 lakes with crystalline waters equipped for excursions.

 

It is one of the most beautiful places in the United States.
The peaks that appear in the design are the "Longs Peak", the highest in the State with 4346 meters, they are also known as "The Twin Brothers", they belong to the Natural Park of Las Rocosas.
The routes created by the Indians thousands of years ago, and which they used to collect eagle feathers from the peaks, are now followed by climbers from all over the country to ascend to the peaks, in hot seasons, since in winter time the passes are closed due to snow and the risk of avalanches.
The east face of these mountains is totally steep and vertical, and although they are now listed among the 50 typical climbs in the United States, in 1954 they were closed to the practice of this sport due to their danger, reopening in 1960. This face is known as “The Diamond”, given its geometric shape that resembles a cut diamond.
