Eli says

Yesterday we went to Pike's Peak. The tram ride was really slow and we got to see a lot of wildlife. First we saw a mini waterfall. Then we saw a ton of aspen trees. The aspen trees roots are all connected. After that we saw a waterfall about as big as the trees in my backyard. Then we saw the remains of a hotel halfway up the track. After that we saw the tundra. It was littered with rocks and only little flowers grew there. We saw the den of the mountain lion. Then we saw big horned sheep messing around. After that we reached the peak at some 41,000 elevation. The air was thin and Shay got sick. We ate popcorn and donuts up there. The ride down gave a amazing view of the tundra we saw a active gold mine in the distance and three lakes. After the tram ride down shugi got sick and we went to the chuck wagon. We got caught up in traffic and missed the gun fight. But the food was good they had the choice of roast beef or chicken I got roast beef beans applesauce cake a roll and a backed potato with coffee. The staff sang a bunch of cowboy songs then we went to the hotel.
