Date Climbed: Jan 1, 1987

I did this short hike several times as a kid. I never thought this would be a summit post to sign until I saw it on another person's profile! I haven't been there in my adult life, though I'd love to someday.

Windy, but a nice run after work while rotating up from Denver. Just don't tell anyone I left early!

It was three hours of fun for Jeff, Janie, Hope & Tom sightseeing, hiking, and taking photos. Despite being November, the temps were very mild. The Saddle Rock Trail is clearly marked and well-maintained. The view from the top is great! There is also a great visitors center at the trailhead.

This was my second time up here. My wife has never been here so we decided to stop on our way home. Temperatures were very comfortable in the 70's. Strange for November in Nebraska.

Great view from this historic butte on the Oregon Trail. If your travels take you within 50 miles of this area, it is worth the stop and short hike to the summit.

I actually like western Nebraska quite a bit. There are a lot of interesting little things to see and do.

I, too, have hiked around this area numerous times. The summit is pretty cool, and it provides an excellent view in all directions--it's a great view of the Great Plains! A good way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

I have been to this area as a youngster and I loved it! I drive close to this area every week and I hope to be back up to the monument. I love these great sandstone bluffs in our great plains!

Short hike of only 3.2 miles RT and about 425 feet of verticle gain. Perfect time of the year to climb; there were no bugs, the temperature was moderate, and the grass is still green!
