It's been three months since Incline Nation kicked off on OutThereColorado.com.
Despite some snow, ice, wind and cold conditions, the climbing has been consistent. Nearly 1,000 hikes on the Manitou Springs Incline -- featuring more than 2,000 feet of climbing over 1.02 miles on old railroad ties -- have been recorded.

Leading the way is Shawn Erchinger, who has posted a time of 22 minutes 47 seconds. Erchinger is followed by Eddie Baxter and Garrett Blair, both of whom have finished in 23:25.
Two women have broken the 30-minute mark as Paula Moore (29:10) and Michelle Blessing (29:50) top an impressive list.
To be a member of the Incline Elite (top 50 climbers) for men, you have to be under 32:30 ... and that's moving!
Randy Triplett is the Ironman of the Incline through three months, having recorded 41 climbs. Fred Baxter (39) and John Spillane (37) are close behind.
