Colorado is the eighth largest state when measured in square miles area. Colorado is a diverse region of mountains, plateaus, canyons and plains. Generally, the eastern half of the state has flat, high plains and rolling prairies gradually rising westward to the front range foothills and the higher ranges of the Rocky Mountains. The Continental Divide runs from north to south through west central Colorado and bisects the state into the eastern and western slopes. The western half of the state consists of alpine terrain interspersed with wide valleys, rugged canyons, high plateaus and deep basins.

The endowment was established with a lead gift from the Gates Foundation, and with major contributions from the El Pomar Foundation, the Helen K. and Arthur E. Johnson Foundation, the state of Colorado, the Bonfils-Stanton Foundation, and Total Petroleum. The Fund was established to encourage and improve geography education in Colorado and to increase and disseminate geographic knowledge more broadly in the state.

The Rocky Mountains run north and south, dividing the state into several distinct regions. Generally, the western half of the state receives most moisture because weather fronts moving from the Pacific must drop moisture in order to clear the Continental Divide. Colorado's famous ski areas are the fortunate beneficiaries of this phenomenon in winter. The eastern half of the state is usually the warmer, dryer and lower half. T he High Plains. To the east of the front range and running to Colorado's eastern border, the High Plains are the rolling grasslands that are home to ranching, beef production and grain crops that constitute the state's sizable agriculture output. T he Front Range. Located on the high plains just east of the mountains. The Front Range is the business center of the state and home to 80% of the state population of approximately 4 million. From Ft. Collins in the north and south to Denver, Colorado springs and Pueblo, the front range remains free of snow cover for most of the winter due to the many sunny days and mild temperatures. Evergreen, just west of Denver, is considered part of this area.

T he foothills just west of Denver mark the transition from the high plains to the Continental Divide ( see Colorado Geography page ) and Evergreen is a small foothills community where cowboys in pickup trucks, joggers, cyclists and Denver executives all share a strong sense of pride in their unique mountain town. They are considered fortunate by city dwellers and they do little to change that notion. S treams run full to their banks with clean rushing water, grassy mountain meadows explode with the colors of wildflowers and crisp mornings are accented with clear mountain air. We share our land with foxes, elk, tassel-eared squirrels, hummingbirds, and abundant other wildlife. A ccessing Denver via I-70 on the north and Hwy 285 on the south ( see Maps page ), the sister communities of Evergreen and Conifer are only minutes from the business and cultural activities in downtown Denver, yet miles closer to heaven. Both roads are 4-lane, limited access highways that whisk commuters to and from our quiet mountain area.
