The western frontier of Colorado generally refers to the area west of the Rocky Mountains, particularly the region encompassing the San Juan Mountains and the western slope along the Colorado River. This area is characterized by its rugged terrain, remote wilderness, and historically significant towns such as Durango and Telluride, which were pivotal during the mining boom of the late 19th century. The western frontier also includes parts of Mesa County and the expansive landscapes of the Colorado National Monument.
