Colorado Profile
Bordered by Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Utah, it covers 104,094 sq mi (269,602 sq km); its capital is Denver. Lying astride the Rocky Mountains, the state has three physiographic regions: the plains, a semiarid segment of eastern Colorado; the Colorado Piedmont in the central part of the state, where most of the population lives; and the southern Rocky Mountains and mesas of western Colorado. Its original inhabitants were Plains and Great Basin Indians, including the Arapaho, Cheyenne, and Ute. U.S. exploration of Colorado began immediately after the United States made the Louisiana Purchase, of which Colorado was a part, in 1803. Gold was discovered in 1858 and touched off a gold rush and population boom beginning the following year. Organized as the territory of Colorado in 1861, it achieved U.S. statehood in 1876. Agriculture, cattle production, and mining, as well as manufacturing, are important to the economy. Government military installations and service industries have become prominent, and tourism is a major source of the state's income (see Aspen; Boulder; Vail).

Colorado Links
There's more information than I could possibly list here but I want to provide links to further your investigation if you so choose. So, here's a link the Official State Home Page of Colorado. The official tourism Web site of Colorado has a lot to offer.
Weather information is also available by cities. Just visit Colorado Weather - Average Temperatures and Rainfall and then click on the name of the city you are interested in to find data for that specific city. And what state profile would be complete without a link to their Top Attractions and Oddities?!?
