The 'Arikaree River' is a tributary of the North Fork of the Republican River that flows mostly east out of the State of Colorado in the United States. In its lowest reach it flows for about 5 kilometers (3 miles) through the extreme northwestern corner of the State of Kansas and for about 16 kilometers (10 miles) through the southwestern portion of the State of Nebraska to its mouth near the town of Haigler where it joins the North Fork of the Republican River.
The point where the Arikaree River flows out of Colorado and into Kansas is the lowest point in the State of Colorado at 1,010 meters (3,315 feet) elevation. This crossing point holds the distinction of being the highest low point of any U.S. state.^[1]
