Mount

The easternmost fourteener in the contiguous United States, summit at 14,115 feet, bare alpine tundra above a treeline that gives up two thousand feet down the mountain. Three routes reach the top: the Pikes Peak Highway from Cascade, the Manitou and Pikes Peak Cog Railway from Manitou Springs, and the Barr Trail on foot, 12.6 miles each way. Katharine Lee Bates rode to the summit in 1893 and came down with the first lines of America the Beautiful. The view east is what she meant: the Great Plains opening flat to the horizon, no other mountain in the way.

Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
