• Lamborn: Make Peak a Monument ; Forest Service, Colorado Springs Utilities, Pikes Peak Highway Surprised by Lawmaker's Proposal to Seek Federal Designation.

S. Rep. Doug Lamborn says a mountain as famous as Pikes Peak deserves to be a national monument, a federal designation bestowed on some other natural landmarks, including Devils Tower and Mount St. Helens. But when he announced Friday he has formed a committee to explore the possibility, the news came as a surprise to the various agencies who manage the mountain, including the U.S. Forest Service, Colorado Springs Utilities and the city-run Pikes Peak Highway, none of whom were consulted. And some aren't sure a national monument designation is needed.
