Pikes Peak, Garden of the Gods and Newlin Creek

by merrick

After the sister’s wedding (see the previous post), we decided that since we were already in Colorado Springs, and we needed a vaca, we might as well stay a couple of extra days and check it out. My parents, wife and I took a trip up Pikes Peak via a cog train. I got some beta on a climbing spot near (about 30 min south) Colorado Springs called Newlin Creek. We also wanted to check out Garden of the Gods and do the tourist/ photog thing and just relax and have fun. I shot photos of the three places, and put together my selects from the trip. Here they are, I hope you enjoy.
