About Alpine Summit Solutions LLC

Manitou Springs is built at an angle. Driveways switch back up the canyon walls, walkways give up and turn into stairs, and on the shaded north side above Ruxton the ice can hold for a week after the sun has cleared everywhere else. Alpine Summit Solutions LLC works that pitch — plowing and shoveling the steep drives, clearing steps and landings, and treating the stretches that stay slick long after the storm has gone. Weather comes down off Pikes Peak and funnels through Ute Pass, so a storm here often lands harder than the forecast for town below it. The result is worth the climb: a canyon driveway you can actually drive, and a flight of steps a person can take two at a time.
