Day 5: Pike's Peak


Morning at the campground

19 miles to the top!









                      



                                                               
On the way to the top!
 
Still climbing!

A kind soul took our picture.


19 miles and 60 minutes later we reached the top!  Elevation 14,110 ft!


Blue sky with a few clouds and temperature in the 50's.


Art at the top!



Cog train heading for the station!


















Crazy runners now get to go down to finish the race!

We finally decided to drive down with the sky was getting black and looked like rain.

Switchbacks!


AND then we saw these two cars stopped along the side of the road.....



Old car, modern camera!


Off they go to the top!



Tomorrow we pack up and drive to Durango.  Hope all is well

  1. What a view! At first I thought you walked to the top, but in rereading you must have driven. Interesting "old" cars.
