Pikes Peak

[05RamSRTkid]

Took a trip up Pikes Peak and to Garden of the Gods. Pikes peak is referred to as Americas Mt with a summit of 14,110 ft and inspired the song "America The Beautiful". Garden of the Gods is a park with natural rock formations that is a great place for a drive. I definitely recommend it along with all the other attractions in this area to anyone that visits. Id even be the tour guide anyway heres just a few pics

I dont think I could handle a bike ride up that. then again there are people who do foot races up it..and thats just crazy.

Beautiful there. We did a bike trip there a few years ago. (Gardon of the Gods and Pikes Peak)

We stayed in Canyon City, and watched people bungly jump and ski dive off the Royal Gourge bridge. NOW that was cool!

Quite an amazing place. Garden of the Gods doesnt have a waterfall. there is one called seven falls in town though. Ill have to add that place to the list whenever I decide to go on a national distillery tour :rock:

Good idea, we are about 80 miles from Jack Daniels distillery.:rock: :rock:

I dont think I would survive living that close to the Jack Daniels Distillery. Id be there EVERY WEEKEND doing the tour

Been there, done that.I highly recommend it too. Colorado is a Very Beautiful State. If I ever move away from California Colorado is where I would move to.
Lots of Steam Trains and Old Mines Too.

Im really into American History and this side of the country is untouched in so many places so that you can enjoy the land as it was before it was colonized and see what life was like.
