Rivers of the World

Colorado (1x7)

Air date: Nov 18, 2010

Rising out of the Rocky Mountains, the Colorado flows for over 2,300 kilometres before arriving in Mexico, from where it empties into the Pacific Ocean. It rolls majestically across America's mineral-rich western plains, whose breath-taking immensity have an unreal quality. As it moves from Monument Valley to the Grand Canyon, the Colorado weaves through a landscape as if from another world.
