The Rocky Mountains Ape Colony is an ape clan founded by Khan after the Battle of San Francisco. The clan was initially part of the San Francisco Ape Colony but broke away to flee the war between the apes and Alpha-Omega.
History[]
Background[]
Khan and his clan initially followed Koba but after Caesar killed Koba, they were divided on what to do about the human army arriving to fight them. Caesar suggested standing together to fight them while the elders wanted to flee to protect the future of the tribe. Khan initially stood by Caesar’s side but after many apes died in the conflict, Khan decided to protect his family from the war. To this end, he gathered his family, the elders, and a group of apes loyal to him and led them away from the fighting. Unfortunately, a group of humans found the breakaway tribe and attacked, killing Khan’s wife. The tribe, including Khan’s son Juno, was terrified while Khan and his sons were unsure how to respond to the attack. Khan turned to his sons and Clarence for advice on how to respond to this attack. Tola wanted to go back himself with Brutus and kill all the humans in revenge while Bryn wanted to leave and seek peace for the sake of his own family, and Juno just wanted to avoid the humans altogether.
Khan eventually took Tola's advice and had his sons look for humans in revenge and find a human settlement. But by the time they arrived, the humans were gone and Khan's tribe decided to continue their journey. Soon, Khan’s tribe settled in the Rocky Mountains where they lived undisturbed for months. When summer ended, the food supply dwindled with apes divided on whether they should look for food on the plains or continue searching for food around the mountains.
Planet of the Apes: Last Frontier[]
At the start of winter, a group of apes hunted on the plains, unbeknownst to the rest of the clan. While hunting. they stumbled upon a nearby settlement of humans in a town called Millerton and stole some of their food. This started a bloody feud between the clan and Millerton, resulting in casualties on both sides, including Khan. Tola took over the leadership of the colony and escalated the conflict into an all-out war. During the war, both sides attacked each other and managed to capture one prisoner each. Bryn and Oaka tried to end the fighting by arranging a prisoner exchange at a bridge with Millerton in an attempt for peace. Both prisoners return to their respective camps, but rogue factions within both the clan and Millerton broke the peace, and war resumed, killing many humans and apes. Back at the clan, they discovered an army of humans more dangerous was present at the bridge and were planning to exterminate the clan. Bryn went on a scouting mission to determine how many soldiers were in this new group.

The Colony Attacks Millerton[]
After Bryn returns to the colony or is killed, Tola leads another attack on Millerton. The apes are slaughtered by the combined forces of the Millerton Militia and the new army.
The Colony Attacks the Train[]
While out scouting, Bryn formulates a plan with Millerton to repel the new human army by blowing up their transport train. After Bryn returns to the clan and the fight between Tola and Bryn over who shall lead their army into battle ends, an army of apes gather on the edge of the forest near the train tracks waiting for it to pass. After the people from Millerton successfully blow the train up, the ape army picks off the survivors.

- If Tola is the Leader: Tola orders his army to attack Millerton and successfully kill everyone in the town. Tola is last seen with Brutus overlooking the waterfall.
The Colony Flees[]
While out scouting, Bryn formulates a plan with Millerton to repel the new army of humans by blowing up their transport train. After Bryn returns to the colony and Tola is killed, Bryn becomes the leader and leads an army of apes to the forest near the train tracks waiting for it to pass. After the people from Millerton fail to blow the train up, Bryn orders his army to retreat and the entire clan flees from their home to escape the humans in the freezing snow.
