No Better Direction 2021 No Better Direction 2021 Welcome to Northwest Nebraska NEBRASKA LIKE YOU’VE NEVER SEEN IT. Northwest Nebraska defies expectations. You won’t find cornfields and flat landscapes here. What will you find? How about a rich historical and geological record and an unexpected forest? From towering buttes to the sweeping features of the Oglala National Grassland, Northwest Nebraska defines the Great American Road Trip. Throw in a lunar landscape and a budding arts and culture scene at Chadron State College and Post Playhouse, and there is truly No Better Direc- tion. The region is accessible by two of Nebraska’s specially-designated scenic byways - the 385 Gold Rush Scenic Byway (Hwy 385) and the Bridges to Buttes Scenic Byway (Hwy 20). Ad- ditionally, Hwy 2/71 is part of the Fossil Free- way, which carries travelers to several stops that tell the story of the area’s fossil history, reaching from the southern Panhandle of Ne- braska to southern South Dakota. This is a place for people to explore and discover new things, like ancient fossils and hidden landscapes. A place for people who want to get off the interstate and away from the crowds. A place for people who want to find themselves by getting lost. What are you waiting for?

    NEBRASKA : THE COR NHUSKER STATE 43 larger cities and counties continue to grow. Between 2000 and 2010, the population of Douglas County—home of Omaha—increased 11.5 percent, while neighboring Sarpy County grew 29.6 percent. Nebraska’s population is becoming more racially and ethnically diverse. The most significant growth has occurred in the Latino population, which is now the state’s largest minority group. From 2000 to 2010, the state’s Latino population increased from 5.5 percent to 9.2 percent, growing at a rate of slightly more than 77 percent. The black population also grew from 3.9 percent to 4.4 percent during that time. While Nebraska’s median age increased from 35.3 in 2000, to 36.2 in 2010 — the number of Nebraskans age 65 and older decreased slightly during the same time period, from 13.6 percent in 2000, to 13.5 percent in 2010. RECREATION AND PLACES OF INTEREST31 National Areas32 Nebraska has two national forest areas with hand-planted trees: the Bessey Ranger District of the Nebraska National Forest in Blaine and Thomas counties, and the Samuel R. McKelvie National Forest in Cherry County. The Pine Ridge Ranger District of the Nebraska National Forest in Dawes and Sioux counties contains native ponderosa pine trees. The U.S. Forest Service also administers the Oglala National Grassland in northwest Nebraska. Within it is Toadstool Geologic Park, a moonscape of eroded badlands containing fossil trackways that are 30 million years old. The Hudson-Meng Bison Bonebed, an archaeological site containing the remains of more than 600 pre- historic bison, also is located within the grassland.

Attendees will have the opportunity to search for and rehabilitate a variety of monuments consisting of large state line mileposts, section corners, and closing corners dating back to 1882. A nearby astronomical station placed in 1874 to aid in deter- mining the initial state line boundary survey will also be uncovered. The culmination of this search will enable the group to collectively locate the Terminal Monument where the 103rd Meridian intersected the Nebraska/South Dakota state line. This famed line is also the western boundary of the historic Pine Ridge Reservation and the western bound- ary of the 6th Principal Meridian surveys in South Dakota.
