A seven-mile gap in the Ring the Peak Trail on Pikes Peak Mountain prompted a comprehensive planning process led by N.E.S. Inc. This involved community and stakeholder engagement resulting in a roadmap for the Trail’s long-term operation. With a diverse team of specialists, the project focused on public outreach, analysis, trail alignment, and sustainability. The Ring the Peak Master Plan, developed over two years of collaboration, serves as a guide for completing the iconic trail and establishing goals for the Ring as a whole. It’s intended to aid trail advocates, land managers, and government organizations, reflecting shared interests and goals.
