Pikes Peak is 14,110 feet tall and one of many mountains in Colorado that are over 14,000 feet. Fortunately for us there is a Cog Train that goes up Pike Peak and we didn’t have to climb all the way up. Although I would like to hike up sometime but then our 4 month old would not be able to come with us.
So we put his little train conductor hat on and took the “Pikes Peak Railway” to the top.
We were told when we got on that it was 6˚F or -14˚C at the top. When we got to the top it was the same but the wind was blowing about 30 miles per hour which made the relative temperature -25˚F or -32˚C. So we didn’t stay out very long but it was funny to see the group of High School kids who were in t-shirts running around trying to take photos.
Yes, our son is out there with us in the -25˚F weather.
