Driver's view of the Pike's Peak Railway

[JCitron]

The journey starts at the top of Pike's Peak (elevation 14,115 ft/4.3 km) to the bottom. The colors are absolutely amazing with the contrast between the red soil and rocks against the pines, aspen, and spruce.

Nice! If I can get down that way, I'll have to make a round trip.

That would be great if you can.

During a storm chase about 8 years ago, we considered taking the ride to the summit because the storms were nowhere to be found, but storms actually decided to show up and that plan was scuttled. Figures. I'd rather have taken the trip up Pike's Peak.

You're welcome. I really like the texturing in the video. This gives me some ideas for a route I've been planning for ages in that region.
