I'm probably the only Freeper to actually stand atop Cheyenne Mountain. This was about five years ago and my wife and I were with a hiking group that from time to time were permitted to hike up the mountain. We were escorted by an individual that owned property on the north side of the mountain. It was grandfathered type deal, going back several generations which allowed him road access from the west side. We drove 4 wheel type vehicles a good portion of the way and hiked the rest of it. Interesting to stand above the entrance to the NORAD complex, some two thousand feet below ... great view of Colorado Springs and Fort Carson. At approximately 9500 ft. you can say the view is breath taking because you do feel the altitude.

Nope, you aren't. Been there several times.
