Description

Sunrise atop Pikes Peak, widely promoted as "America's Mountain" and certainly one of the best known mountains in America. For much of the 19th century Pikes Peak served as a beacon for generations of Americans first as a navigational aide crossing the Great Plains of Eastern Colorado, and then as a region with mining jobs in both the coal and gold mining industries. Now, in the 21st century it is a tourism destination that hundreds of thousands of people ascend each year, either by car, train or on foot.
