Colorado's 14,000 foot peaksPikes Peak is a massive 14,109 foot mountain that abruptly and
dramatically rises from the high plains of eastern Colorado, and forms a
marvelous visual backdrop to the city of Colorado Springs. It provides the
area with magnificent natural beauty and a wide range of recreational
opportunities. It is Colorado's best known 14er, as it has both a road and cog railway to the peak. Of the other Colorado Peaks, 53 summits are considered to be distinct 14,000 foot mountains. These are listed in the order of their elevation. Five others do not meet the strict criterion of being counted as a seperate peak. These will have an * by their name.
