Panorama Point 5,424' 11/27/02

On the drive out to Iowa for Thanksgiving, we opted to make for slight diversion North up to Cheyenne to stop at Nebraska's highpoint. Following Mapquest directions proved that route-finding is not a problem confined solely to mountaineering. Perhaps it is best to follow the guidebooks' advice first. In any event, after driving eleven miles down State Line Road, we backtracked to I-80 and found the proper route from 8th street in Pine Bluffs, WY. At the gate we saw the sign (on the right) and paid the $2 fee per person. There was an interesting cattle guard made from hoses at the entrance gate which I didn't find to be very car paint-friendly. picture
