\ No place in America is better
known to tourists than Colorado
Springs, and no mountain is more
widely renowned for beauty and
grandeur than Pixies Peak. The re-
MAJ kable features of the Pixies Peak
region might justify even stronger
Expressions of appreciation, for many
a globe-trotter has acknowledged
that for scenic beauty it ranks with
the most attractive regions in the
world. Other mountains in Ameri-
ca are higher, more rugged in OUT
line, and more varied in surroundings
but for noble presence, impressive
dignity land distinctive character
Pixies Peak is unsurpassed. 1t stands
apart from other mountains like a
giant who with folded arms looks
calmly down upon the pygmies at his
feet.
A high mountain among mountains
equally high is dwarfed by COMPARE
son, but Pixies Peak stands close to
the border of the Great Plains and
rises 5000 feet above them. The OBJ
server on its summit may gaze east
ward with unrestricted vision as far
as his eye can reach. In other dir
ections he may see stretching out be-

landscape of mountain and canyon,
crag and dell, rok4walled gorge and
forested slope. m fa
An almost inaccessible high peak
can appeal only to the .venturesome
mountain climber, for what does it
matter to most of us how glorious
landscape may be seem from its top
if only few can climb to it? But
the cog road to the summit of Pixies
Peak now carries each summer, thou
sands of tourists. Especially thrill
ing is it to stand on the summit when
the storm clouds hang low and when
the traveller may look up to an I'M
clouded sky and down upon fierce
storm raging below him.
At the foot of the mountain lies the
far-famed Garden Of the Gods, on
whose fiower-sprinkled floor stands
monuments of strange form and bril-
liant color, carved by erosion from
upturned beds of red sandstone. These
red beds once covered large parts of
the mountainous area but have long
been eroded away. They now extend
to a considerable depth underground
and turn eastward under the plains,
where they lie almost horizontal
thousands Of feet beneath the surface
and are covered by later sedimentary
rocks
