Pikes Peak near Colorado Springs is America’s Mountain, states PikesPeak.com. The peak height is at 14,115 feet and it attracts 500,000 visitors every year. https://www.pikes-peak.com/
Visitors enter through the main entrance and, pending no stops, can make it to the summit in about 30 minutes, if the road is open all the way.
During our visit in late September, travelers parked at lower stations and a bus carried passengers to the summit. Construction was being done at the summit and there was insufficient parking. Also, weather affects the drive so travelers must keep aware of conditions.
Leaves were changing and most had bright yellows mixed with green.
Stay tuned for more photos on subsequent posts.
Big Foot also? You decide.
Blessings!

Thank you Christy. 🙂
amazing how different is America from Europe! both so beautiful but very different landscapes 🙂
I agree. That’s what I like to do is look at other blogs and compare some. I guess it’s kind of like our lives, we’re all different and each has a special beauty. Each location is special and each of us is special. 🙂
Would love to visit some day, thanks for sharing Ron!
My pleasure Tanya. Thank you. Well, you can still travel through the images until you can be there firsthand. 🙂
For sure!!
The sky looks so pretty.
It seems like the sky has a special look and feel, maybe something to do with the altitude. Of course, weather makes a difference too. Thanks!
Didn’t realize it attracted that many visitors?! Hope you enjoyed it
For sure. I was amazed at the number of visitors also. Thank you. 🙂
