For 115 years, the Manitou and Pike's Peak Railway (the world's highest cog railroad, the highest Colorado railroad AND highest train in the United States) has taken passengers to the 14,110 foot summit of Pikes Peak. www.pikes-peak.com
As the saying goes, "I'm bored generally means I'm boring."
Your generation has been sadly warped. You're used to just lying back and being entertained to the point your sense of wonder has been effectively destroyed.
It's not just you; you're utterly typical for your age. But, I encourage you to not be typical. Ask yourself the tough questions, like, "if Pike's Peak bored me, is it the mountain's fault or mine? Is what I normally do to entertain myself ruining and jading me?
Yeah, i hiked this... Fuck train rides
