I link to this news story about
the Broadmoor Hotel adding another lodge on Cheyenne Mountain just because it lets me incorporate this old promotional film about a previous lodge.
There is also footage of the
Will Rogers Shrine under construction in the mid-1930s. When I was old enough to learn who he was, I wondered how a "man of the people" like Rogers would have felt about being "memorialized" by what looks like a robber baron's tower.
But that was Spec Penrose's money and ego talking.
Also included is footage of the original
Manitou Incline funicular cars.
