Because the rocky mountains are not located in a city I assume that you are talking about the baseball team. Mr. Green Boss has the right of it. They are located in...Coors Field: Home of the Rockies
On Aug. 16, 1990, almost a year before baseball awarded Colorado an expansion team, voters from the six-county Denver area approved a 0.1 percent sales tax to fund a baseball-only stadium. The ballpark's total cost was $215 million.
Architects originally designed the park to seat 43,800. However, after fans set dozens of attendance records at Mile High Stadium (1993-94), Rockies ownership paid to increase inaugural Opening Day capacity to 50,200. In 1998, capacity was increased to 50,381 after the opening of new suites in right field. That year saw Coors host baseball's 69th All-Star Game. The park currently seats 50,445 fans.
The 76-acre ballpark stands at 20th and Blake streets in Denver's lower downtown ("LoDo")district. Fans sitting in the first-base and right-field areas are treated to a spectacular view of the Rocky Mountains. Every year since it opened in 1995, Coors has been a league leader in attendance. On a clear Saturday night when the temperature is 72 degrees and 23 percent humidity, there isn't a better place on Earth.
Most of the stadium seats are green. However, the upper deck's 20th row is painted purple, signifying exactly one mile above sea level.

I assume you're talking about the baseball team and not the mountains? They're based in Denver and play at Coors Field, located in downtown Denver

I'm pretty dumb and I'm gonna guess without searching. Denver? I know which city the Atlanta Braves are located in.

I believe that would be Colorado Springs, Colorado. I could be wrong, but I know there is a great view of them from the airport there, and I went there to go to Pike's Peak.
