This week I took a trip out to the grasslands of Eastern Colorado and Western Nebraska. I visited Pawnee National Grassland as well as Scotts Bluff National Monument. The main features in both places are enormous sandstone bluffs that rise hundreds of feet above the plains. I took advantage of the hiking trails that exist there, and had a very enjoyable adventure.
I posted the photos (with captions) here.
I also posted a short video on youtube here.

I love that tunnel through the sandstone. It looks like something you’d expect to see in Turkey or on some Greek island.
Awesome pictures!!
That’s the kind of beautiful scenery we’d see on a Great Plains Trail!! It would be fantastic!!
It was a pretty fun hike. The tunnel was a trip. I tried to imagine what it would’ve been like to hack that out. I haven’t been to either Turkey or Greece, but the Great Plains do have an exotic appeal at times.
Thanks for the words of encouragement!
This is great to read, Steve. Keep it up!
Thanks. I’m having fun with it.
