Cheyenne Mountain Zoo

We took the boys to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado Springs. This is a mountain zoo and it has some steep hills. The zoo has an elevation of 6,800 ft and you hike up approximately 120 feet from the parking lot to the Asian Highlands (same height as a 10-story building). The new Rocky Mountain Wild Exhibit was great!
The boys love feeding the giraffes.
The little train was fun!
Here is the view from the top of the mountain.
Pony Rides
Lots of little chipmunks followed us around waiting for food.
