Garden of the Gods, Colorado

It's really nice, beautiful, spectacular and just amazing. The rock almost seem unreal. You can climb few, walk few and watch all. It's not very well marked or mapped I feel, but whatever, its awesome. It's been a tiring but wonderful day. And this almost concludes the 7th day so we are almost half done with XC!!











Cave of the Winds, Colorado

Well-well.. if you have never seen a cave, or you really like caves or you have spare time then you should definitely do this. It's $18 per person for a 45 min guided tour. It's not bad, but definitely not the best thing compared to all the other XCitement we have been having...

Leaving Pikes Peak

Right after leaving, found a nice rock to climb with some amazing views as you can sew. The roads down are curvy & windey and you news to drive at 1st or 2nd gear with proper breaking & stopping so you don't burn them down. What a drive & quite an accomplishment, its really XCiting!!





To Pikes Peak

On our way to Pikes Peak, going through narrow winding roads, with some amazing views. It's $12 per person or $40 with upto 5 people in a car. You have to drive in 2nd or 3rd gear all the way up & watch out for Big Foot!!

Lunch at Denver CO

So we stopped in Denver, Colorado for lunch at Euclid. Very delicious & nice but extremely fried, greasy & almost yucky food with happy hour on some awesome beer. Had a great lunch & now heading out to Colorado Springs, in extremely traffic conditions..









Welcome to Colorado

We just entered Colorado & yes, we have network now :) stopped at visitor center for quick break & we can see smoke from forest fire towards west.
