Very majestic. Really dwarfs all the houses beneath it.
Gorgeous view of the peak, George! Great capture!
Beautifully captured George :) The peak looks so regal and stands out against the blue sky.

What a gorgeous view! I always have to remind myself to click on your photos so I can see the grand view!
I can imagine this feeling i recall the awe I felt while driving in the Alps years ago.
I read the lovely tribute to your Dad and send you my condolences.
I love taking a peek at the Peak! Snow on the top, just the perfect time to visit!
ihave heard of pikes peak and read about it in my books, but never seen it... it doesn't fit what i thought it would look like but it is magnificent.
I wonder why it is called Pikes Peak? Is there a lake with pike up there? Or is it because it is long and looks like a pike or maybe the name refers to a person who lived up there?
Very nice shot !
What a wonderful place. It would be nice to visit this place...maybe someday.....
Greetings
That is some place to visit. We enjoyed our time up there too.
What an amazing sight!
Thats an impressive mountain.
Me too.
I am always delighted to see snow.
That is a beautiful drive up there. If you enlarge your picture fully you can see a building on top.
very impressive! gorgeous shot!
Grand view!
Great joy!
The snow is lovely with the light on it!
Very nice. I miss Colorado as our Grands moved to Arizona...
Very beautiful peak. Full majesty.
Your photo as always, is of excellent quality.
Greetings. ♥
My dad drove us up Pike's Peak when I was about 12. I was impressed, especially by the scary, narrow road and drop-offs. It's a beautiful place, and a lovely photo, George.
It's exciting to see something so iconic for the first time! I remember driving in Arizona and almost forgot to stay on the road!
Hi George, lovely picture and love the clear blue sky.
Have a beautiful Sunday.
Seeing that in person must have been spectacular George. We have a small skiff of snow here this morning.
we saw Pikes Peak from afar ... the price to get up those mountains were too pricey for us. we wondered why they would not allow us to use our national parks pass? oh well ... it was gorgeous from where we saw. ( :
