Highpoint #15 - Panorama Point, NE

Panorama Point near Kimball, NE
On Tuesday, July 19, 2011, we "climbed" the highest point in Nebraska, by "climbing" into Georgie's Rav4 and driving southwest of Kimball. At 5,424 ft. above sea level, Panorama Point is higher than the mile high city of Denver! The only difficult part of reaching this highpoint is driving on all the unpaved roads and through the property owner's fields. This pretty much has the same feel as the Kansas highpoint of Mt. Sunflower. Be sure to stop by the Kimball-Banner County Chamber of Commerce, 122 S. Chestnut St., Kimball, NE 69145 (ph: 308-235-3782). to get a brochure, map, and a personalized certificate. And, no, we did not see any buffalo in this field. We did, however, pass a few buffalo on a ranch on our way to view the Tri-State Corner.
