Bigfoot Crossing Sign

At this point in the tour, a sign has been placed "for your safety" as some of the most credible signings of Bigfoot have taken place near the area. Our tour almost always guarantees a sighting and of course, a photo with him!

Crystal Creek Reservoir

The Crystal Creek Reservoir features the first full look at the entire Pikes Peak mountain set against the body of water. The tour drives directly over the dam of this reservoir which also offers a gift shop, restrooms, and informative plaques for reading about local wildlife and history.

Historic Glen Cove Inn 11,450 ft

The historic Glen Cove Inn is an old ski lodge building which sits just under the timber line along the Pikes Peak Highway. At Glen Cove, you can expect to see the first striking view of the bald top of the mountain, highlighted by snow, most of the year. Also at Glen Cove are the Brake Check station, a gift shop, and restrooms.

Bottomless Pit

The Bottomless Pit is as you would expect! Just below the summit of Pikes Peak, the highway nears a steep cliff you can view from the very edge of the road and look down and out across and expansive scene. This location is a favorite for family photos!

Our tour of the Pike's Peak Highway was made all the more exciting by our guide, Jeremiah. He gave us so many anecdotes about his experiences at Pike's Peak and sharing his knowledge of the surrounding area. We would highly recommend this tour and especially our tour guide, Jeremiah!

We had an amazing trip with Jeremiah to just past mile 13. Couldn’t get to the top this trip but will definitely get there next Summer. We learned so much from Jeremiah about Pike’s Peak and the surrounding area. It was a great tour! Will definitely do it again.

Jeremiah was a fantastic tour guide. We saw so much and got so many pictures of our tour. We learned so much history and cool facts. The Bigfoot stop was really fun. We laughed so much. I recommend and will be doing another tour with this company.

The trip was breathtaking. Jeremiah our driver was so knowledgeable and just the most enjoyable person. I am 82 and he was always there to lend an arm at our icy stops. Well worth the $90.

Ask for Jeremiah, not only a good guide, he's a knowledgeable person about the tour, and beyond, like helping you find a good restaurant, other places to go, as well as provide a good joke when less expected.
