The price to drive up Pikes Peak could rise next summer under a proposal that comes at a time of other changes, increased costs and future concerns for the enterprise managing the famed highway.
Pikes Peak-America’s Mountain — the enterprise established out of the city of Colorado Springs’ operations dating to 1948 — has proposed an extra $3 for people passing the Pikes Peak Highway gate. That would increase adult and children tickets to $18 and $8, respectively.
