Ask most people what the highest road in North America is and apart from the inevitable "don't know" your most popular answer is likely to be Pikes Peak. In fact the illustrious Pikes Peak Road is the second highest paved highway in North America with first place going to the less well known Mount Evans, a vast mountain rising to 14264 feet on the Denver skyline in the Front Range of the Colorado Rockies. From the Mile High City, Mt Evans rises not far short of another 2 miles vertically skywards.
