The upturned stratified formations wrap around the mountain flanks of the range, with ridges and valleys formed on their eroded edges and drained southward by the Pecos river to the Rio Grande and the Gulf of Mexico. The mountains rapidly grow wider and higher northward, taking on new complications of structure and including large basins between the axes of uplift. In northern Colorado and Utah, the mountains become a complex of ranges with a breadth of 300 miles (480 km). In Colorado alone, there are 54 summits over 14,000 ft (4,300 m) in altitude, though none rise any higher than Mount Elbert at 14,440 ft (4,400 m). Turning more to the northwest through Wyoming, the ranges decrease in breadth and height. In Montana, their breadth is not more than 150 miles (240 km), and only seven summits exceed 11,000 feet (3350 m) with one reaching 12,834 ft (3,912 m).In general, the peaks in the Rocky Mountains tend to be fairly gentle and rounded relative to those found in other mountain ranges of comparable scale."@en }
