'''Pikes Peak''' (also sometimes referred to as Pike's Peak) is a [[mountain]] in the Front Range of the [[Rocky Mountains]], 10 miles (16 km) west of [[Colorado Springs]], [[Colorado]], in [[El Paso County]]. It is named for [[Zebulon Pike]], an explorer who led an expedition in the southern Colorado area and other parts of the newly acquired [[Louisiana Purchase]] in 1806. (Ironically, Pike himself never reached the summit of Pikes Peak.) At 14,115 feet (4302 m), it is one of Colorado's 54 [[fourteeners]]. Pikes Peak has been designated a [[National Historic Landmark]].
