Scottsbluff National MonumentPanorama Point
This is to the southwest of Scottsbluff and almost to the tristate border with Colorado and Wyoming. If you are travelling in the Interstate 80 region and want to do something a little different, this could be an option. Panorama Point is the highest elevation in the state. It is even higher than the rock formations around Scottsbluff. Most likely, this will appeal to the "highpointers", whose goal is to reach the highest elevation of each state. Panorama Point is simply an area of endless prairie. The tourist info area in Kimball, NE can give very good instructions concerning how to approach this place. The owner of the land requests a small donation in order to drive up the path to the point. There is a "summit" register to sign in and prove you were there. Nearby is a buffalo ranch, so there could be a chance of seeing these animals.
