Northeast Colorado contains some interesting features in the Pawnee National Grassland. They are generally referred to as the Pawnee Buttes and they rise 200-300 feet about the surrounding country. There’s a nice trail leading to them, and they are really cool places to explore.
Great Plains Trail Alliance was formed from an inspiration that began in 1991 when founder Steve Myers took a trip from Minnesota to Wyoming. On the way, he was struck by the beauty of the open spaces west of the Missouri River. He wanted a way to experience this landscape more fully. Not long after, the seed of an idea for the Great Plains Trail was planted.
