Coordinates
[edit]Are the coordinates correct? I see 38°54′30″N 104°49′22″W / 38.9083260°N 104.8227542°W at this site, which is a point along Mountain Creek in Pikeview. When I bring up google maps based upon the coordinates in the article, the location does not look correct based upon other readings about Pikeview's location.

Should both Pikeview Reservoir and Quarry be included in this article?
[edit]Hi,
I've been working on expanding the Pikeview, Colorado article, but I'm a bit confused. The original town of Pikeview was a mining town and railroad station stop near the present Mark Dahbling and Rockrimmon intersection, just of Interstate 25.
There is also Pikeview reservoir off Austin Bluffs/Garden of the Gods Road, Mark Dahbling, and Interstate 25 (i.e., 1.5 miles south of Pikeview). Then there is Pikeview Quarry Road to a quarry that is 5.6 miles west of Pikeview off of Vindicator.
There are also two other quarries nearby - on either side of Queens Canyon - one south and entered near Manitou Springs and the other off of 30th Street, which I think I've also seen called Pikeview Quarry. I've plotted these on google maps and am just trying to sort out whether Pikeview Reservoir and Pikeview Quarry should be in the Pikeview article. I am guessing that Pikeview Reservoir should be in the article, but I don't know about Pikeview Quarry.
Any insight would be really helpful! I've posted this on the WikiProject Colorado talk page to ask a broader audience than might be watching this page. Thanks!--CaroleHenson (talk) 17:30, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
