That road was even more fun before they paved it. I have relatives in Col Springs and every time we go out there they take us to the top. (except the year it snowed in June and the road was closed so we rode the train up)

Could look out some summer mornings and see fresh snow on the peak. Believe the view from the peak inspired the writing of America The Beautiful.
