Cheyenne Mountain

Finally got my ass up to the top of Cheyenne Mountain, the second most prominent peak in Colorado Springs. Somewhere, 30 stories below, an Air Force officer woke up to the sound of an alarm and said, "Holy shit, the alarm is going off, who's in charge here? Me? Oh god, someone call the Army!"

FYI, the actual peak is about half a mile southwest of the antenna farm that is visible from the highway. And yes, that is Pikes Peak looming in the background.

Watch out they don't hit the panic button while you're on top of that thing.

Met M'Alice at the coast.
