I just visited my daughter and her husband, stationed at Ft Carson, CO. My goal was to complete The Manitou INCLINE, just outside Colorado Springs. My wife and I walked about 4-5 miles 3 to 4 time a week, for a few months, mostly hills to try and prepare for this hike. It helped, but I'm not sure anything would prepare you for this. Holy cow, what a hike, but well worth it when you make it to the top. The picture is of me, my wife, my 2 daughters and my daughters husband standing at the top of The Incline. I don't know why the second picture keeps loading sideways, but if you click on it, it opens up right. This is a picture of the over 50 crowd at the top of The Incline. :) If you want a good workout and you enjoy pain,
