He describes Cripple Creek as a mining town with rough streets and no shade, the ride over the hillside rail line as breathtaking and soaring 4000 feet in 20 miles, and Pike's Peak as a nine mile cog railway climb to 9000 feet. The view from the summit reveals a panorama of many tall peaks, and the experience mirrors his memory of Mount Washington.
