Exploring COLORADO SPRINGS in 2 DAYS! (Pikes Peak, Manitou Incline, Garden of the Gods ++)
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creators document a multi-day trip to Colorado Springs, beginning with a visit to Garden of the Gods. They explore the central garden area on foot, noting the pet friendly nature of the park and the presence of various wildlife. The trip continues to Seven Falls, where they utilize a shuttle service and an elevator to reach the top of the waterfall to avoid a long staircase. The following day involves a drive up Pikes Peak via the mountain toll road. Due to heavy snow, they are unable to reach the summit but reach the visitor center at mile 13 to enjoy the views and the thick snow. After a stop at Crystal Creek Reservoir and a meal of various hot dogs, Jason takes on the challenge of the Manitou Incline. He climbs 2,768 steps to reach an elevation gain of 2,000 feet before descending via the Barr Trail. The trip concludes with a visit to the Manitou Cliff Dwellings, where the creators observe the historical structures and the natural temperature regulation of the stone dwellings.
