Thank you, Colorado!


Colorado River



Downtown Telluride, Colorado


The inspiration for
America the Beautiful
was
Pikes Peak, Colorado



Pikes Peak, America's Mountain


Taken from a line in 'America the Beautiful' the patriotic song was written by
Katharine Lee Bates in 1893. She wrote other versions later, in 1904 and 1913.

O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!

Katharine Lee Bates wrote the song following an inspirational
visit to Pikes Peak, Colorado, USA, which she later described:

"One day some of the other teachers and I decided to go on a trip to 14,000-foot Pikes Peak. We hired a prairie wagon. Near the top we had to leave the wagon and go the rest of the way on mules. I was very tired. But when I saw the view, I felt great joy. All the wonder of America seemed displayed there, with the sea-like expanse."
