This southwest area of Colorado is a rich mixture of physical terrains and cultural heritages — mountains, desert, farm country, archaeological sites of people who lived in the area more than a thousand years ago and people who have settled here since the late 1800s. The area also includes a Ute Mountain Ute Indian reservation and Mesa Verde National Park.
