A new travel option for the 2024 summer season could bring the total number of people going through the gates of the Pikes Peak Highway to more than half a million people. “We get so many people coming in and out of the office or at the gateway saying I am too scared to drive through those switchbacks above timberline, like that’s not for me, do you have a shuttle?” Pike Peak America’s Mountain Manager Skler Rorabaugh said. This summer there is a new option for a $30 package deals that includes the entrance fee and a shuttle service up the mountain. “We’re able to tell them that yeah, drive up to mile seven, which is a pretty easy, pretty comfortable drive for most people, you can get out, hop on the shuttle, and then take that shot all the way to the summit,” Rorabaugh said. On May 1, the North Slope Recreation Area at the base of Pikes Peak opens for the season. Related Articles Outdoors | What is Colorado’s highest 14er?

We have been talking about getting married. He has never been married before (no kids) and I am gun-shy, to say the least. I own my home, my son is happy, and I am trying to be extremely careful about our future. Last week Ben took me out for a drink.

    The best Taylor Swift needle drops will make you think about her music a little differently.

    Time, Friday - 05/03/2024 - 03:45 PM

    In a fast-food culture, there may be few things better for your health than making a simple home-cooked meal. But while the meal itself may be a good idea, the cooking part can be a problem—at least if you own a natural gas or propane stove. That’s the conclusion of a new study in Science Advances, showing that dangerous levels of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) are emitted by both kinds of stoves. The findings are a result of new work conducted at Stanford University by environmental scientist Rob Jackson and graduate researcher Yannai Kashtan.
