Final answer:

The river that rises in the Sawatch Range of the Rockies and flows 1460 miles southeast to the Mississippi River is the Missouri River.

Step-by-step explanation:

The river that rises in the Sawatch Range of the Rockies and flows 1460 miles southeast to the Mississippi River is the Missouri River. The Colorado River, on the other hand, flows for 1440 miles from its source in the Rocky Mountains to the Gulf of California in the Pacific Ocean, and it does not flow into the Mississippi River.
