Pikes Peak is named after Zebulon Pike who tried but never climbed it. In 2008 at least 40,000 people will reach its summit by car, train or by hiking. It is climbed every New Years Eve by a stalwart group who discharge fireworks from the summit for the pleasure of tourists and Coloradans at midnight.
