Continued on to Colorado Springs. Took the cog railway to the top of Pike's Peak, where the temperature was 32 degrees and it was snowing! What a difference from the 100 degree heat in Kansas! The ride up took us through a few different climates, past the aspen trees and even some bighorn sheep. Just put the news on the tv and there is a winter weather advisory, talk about a different environment!
Then I drove through the Garden of the Gods, unbelievable scenery, loaded with red rock formations that just went on and on.
I am so impressed with Colorado Springs and I haven't even tried any of the mineral springs yet!
The rocks remind me of Sedona AZ. Did you have a coat for Pike's Peak?
