I've driven to the summit of Pikes Peak a few times and taken the cog train twice. I think that is the highest I've been. Especially since the last time i went i smoked an entire cannaguar first.

Some do it as a family!
For me it's a loaded question, my sperm donor was not a good man, my real ffather (adopted) was the best man I have ever known. I have never formed a partner relationship, so yes without a family.

I went there thinking, it would be "oh ok" but damn it's so impressive not just the dam but the workings of it and how it's built.
I went on the mostly whole dam tour. I got to see the power generators in the lower level and walked in some of the access tunnels.
I wish they had the whole dam tour that even takes you in more of the facility. There was some construction going on when I went so some parts were not available to tour.
One thing about the tour, the movie you watch is from an old DVD. You would think the federal government could have spent a little coin to upgrade some of the video by shooting some HD/4K video and upscale some of the video playback of the opening part of the tour.
I was a little disappointed although I was going to video equipment conference when I went on the dam tour, so I was able to see the best of the best in video equipment.

Same here, but did you see the enormous side tunnels they built. I am not in the mood to upload them but what they did at that time in history is amazing.

Smoked 2 joints of Columbian redbud back to back in the late 70s. I was real high.

Eisenhower tunnel, did a few times in the semi - now i just go around all that crap.
Back in college a rich kid in the dorm came back with a giant bag of weed and we smoked out the entire top floor of McCullough Hall on a holiday weekend. There was about six of us there and that whole building stank for a few weeks.

Above sea level, probably somewhere in Rocky Mountain or Yellowstone NPs. Maybe the tunnel io I-70 crossing the divide.
Above ground level, top of the Sears Tower in Chicago.

I get it. I still like to call the Willis Tower the Sears Tower. Apparently others do too.

Pikes Peak by cog railway.
Under my own power, several peaks in the Wind River Range, all around 12000. Some mountains in Alaska that were lower in elevation but more technical.

Sunrises on mountains in God's country are something special.

Hiked up and down Mt. Evans in Colorado, 14,265. Descending beat the hell out of my toes smashing into the end of my shoes.

A little over 29,000 ft.

Pike’s Peak also plus Mt Baldy in New Mexico 12,441 and Mt Fuji 12,389

I have been on Pike's Peak too.
I guess the second highest and by far the most scenic place I have been to is the Klien Matterhorn, the mountain near Zermatt, Switzerland that is next to and overlooks the Matterhorn. It is the highest peak in Europe that is accessible by ski lifts, and the scenery is incredible.
