My Dad liked to drive as close as he could to the edge of those "guardrail-less" roads and then tell us kids to look out the window. He would get close enough we couldn't see the road out the window facing that side. My mom would be smacking him telling him to cut it out, but he would keep on driving and laugh.....i'm still traumatized by it, and would probably have a hard time driving up Pike's Peak now as an adult :) We used to go up to Pike’s Peak when my family lived in Colorado Springs.

My family and I visited Pikes Peak on the 161st anniversary. I remember that is was snowing quite heavily at the peak and I felt quite dizzy - nothing that a little hot chocolate at the lodge couldn't cure. Good luck on your continued adventure.
