COLORADO - Colorado Springs

August 21 Tuesday PM  

Did something today that Gary has always dreamed of doing....driving up Pikes Peak.





5 mile mark - Crystal Resevoir


Start of the annual race...faint line across road at the 7 mile mark

Coming to the end of the tree line


Approaching the top


Top is in sight


 Cog Rail Ride is headed down from the top....
STEEP!!!

TOP...we have driven 19 miles to reach the summit


At the top

View that was the inspiration for "America The Beautiful"

See what I mean....inspiring!


Looking back at some of the road we traveled up...curvy, isn't it?
